|
As some of you already know, we bought a new house in FL in November. We have been working on a lot of things inside but recently improved our pool area. I am so glad it is finally done and we have some privacy around the pool!
Here are before pictures:
And here is after. We moved the fence out onto our property line and added a composite deck (because we couldn't find the pavers to match the existing part) and added some palms for privacy.
Thanks for looking and letting me share! _________________ Mimi, mom to Sky (12/24/08) & Olivia (7/3/12)

Fantastic!! Looks amazing. No jealousy here, from someone who has just sat through a lesson at a sweltering indoor pool. Honest! _________________ Shadow

That is so pretty. Mimi, I would love to see what the front of your house looks like. I bet it is just as amazing as the back. _________________ Erica

I have to take a new picture since we just re-landscaped the front as well.
And, the pool is actually in the courtyard inside our (fake) front doors so we have a back yard too. It is a totally confusing concept to describe but you can see the real front door to our house in one of the pictures and the french doors going into our kitchen/family room as well. There is also a picture that has sliding glass doors and that is to the MIL suite. _________________ Mimi, mom to Sky (12/24/08) & Olivia (7/3/12)
