I am always looking for creative ways to add a unique touch to my outdoor patio.  There are many ways that you can create a beautiful outdoor area without spending a ton of money.  I was inspired by a very good friend and garden designer, Barbara Bryant.  I went to dinner at her house and acquired many new outdoor patio ideas.  She can take what is normally a simple looking plant and turn it into an outdoor garden art exhibit.  

I have posted some pictures of how she transformed her outdoor area to be a place you never want to leave.  It is a DIY project that just takes a bit of thinking outside the box.

These terracotta pots really offer a one of a kind style to your outdoor patio.

The garden accents are great for succulents and your favorite vines.  

Good luck making your outdoor area your own!
