It's all looking so great! And the best part is seeing all the fun everyone (including the dog) is having! I don't think the kids' smiles could be any bigger!!!
My first guess on the old patio furniture was skeletal pieces (hopefully cows or similar....). But now that I'm on my computer and can see better, my best guess is driftwood. Now I can't wait to hear what they're really made of. And who built these? I'm always amazed at the creativity of people! Use what you have or what interests you!
But I have to say, the new furniture with those gorgeous cushions are my favorite. I really NEED those cushions - they would go perfectly with the color theme I'm trying to go with - aqua and dark blue.
I know you've had fun with your sister and her family. I enjoy my pool the best when I have friends and family in it with me. No, I enjoy my pool best when it's quiet and I'm alone. No, with friends and family. No, alone and quiet. Well, you get the idea!
