Hey guys! So, last year I had to say goodbye to my gorgeous rooftop patio because the garage underneath decided to have a structural meltdown. But guess what? We fixed it up, and now it’s ready for a major glow-up! Join me as I transform this space into the ultimate retro, Palm Springs-inspired hangout spot!

"It's a little lighter now because there's a hole in it" 😂
-
I love that you dyed your umbrella cover rather than just getting a new one! 👏🙌🏽👏
-
The table legs are SO MUCH CUTER as single cube tables!!! I liked them as the legs, but I LOVE them as little cubes!! Your thrift finds were all SO good! That table cloth is everything. I'd def find a place for that painting or print. I wonder if you could DIY some kind of weather-proof frame to hang it in out on the balcony.
-
Rochelle & Becky never fail to impress me with their diy skills. GIRL BOSS!
-
love that it's not overaccessorized and will actually function outside without having to bring in and out a ton of stuff every time you use the space
-
When you have to rebuild one side of your house because of water damage you then embrace all options for avoiding future water damage! Also, the Austin and Roshy team up was delightful. And Becky comes through with her wonderful sense of style. Looks great!
-
I love how becky literally makes over the whole house and Austin is like : all I want is a picknick table 😂
-
I'm so glad Becky talk briefly about the sustainability reasons for the tape because, sometimes...Sustainability means leaving mother nature take a break😅
-
To Austin: I do believe in aliens but in a kinda boring way. The universe is huge so considering the numbers they HAVE to exist. If they're here? That I don't know.
-
Love how functional this feels. Like it's beautiful and stylish, but I can actually see people sitting and hanging out here, not just taking aesthetic pics and then moving all the decor out of the way. Another great redesign! Love that the tiles still found a place to live too!
-
More becky content! Love to see everything 70s - 60s, retro and mcm!! ♡
-
I'm so glad you took the vintage seats 😁👍🏻 Amazing!
-
Yes!! I was thinking yesterday “I miss Becky’s 70’s house!” Thank you universe!!!
-
I’m glad you shared that the picnic table was important to Austin. I find them uncomfortable and not a vibe, but it is so cool that he wanted that and you compromised like you said. ❤ I love the final result.
-
We bought our picknick table many years ago(over 20). We have periodically treated it with a wood sealer that is water and weather proof. When we drove by the place we purchased it, the other tables were still sitting out end of season and so warped they were unusable. Ours is still going strong despite being used on occasion for a saw horse and other purposes.

If you are talking about aliens on Earth, then no. If you are talking about aliens somewhere in Space, then definitely yes ! That was my personal note on aliens. 👽👾

A patio is never finished without 🌟 string lights 🌟
-
I forgot all about the balcony! This is gonna be fun! 😁🇸🇪
-
I love love love this deck! You guys did a fantastic job! One suggestion-- sacrifice the tablecloth to make cushions for those white chairs. They really need at least bottom cushions.

That buttery yellow blanket is a "frazada" and goes under the comforter, traditionally in latin america i would say several countries don't use the same composition in making a bed as in the usa. It's warm and thick so we use more of those in the winter time Also i loved how it turned out!!♥
