This is our back patio off our bedroom with this little roof that covers the stairs that go into the basement. The little roof used to be the perch for our swamp cooler, but Andy got this brilliant idea to move it to another window and build an outdoor buffet that can double as a potting table.
A couple days later...it features bead-board, a stainless steel counter top, as well as custom metal counter tops Andy built. We are still working on the trim and touch ups, but we are so excited to have some space for outdoor dining! And it looks soooo much better than a giant swamp cooler. Now I can look out the kitchen window while doing dishes and see the beautiful back yard rather than the swamp cooler. And, the top ledge works great to pass things through the window while Andy is cooking and I'm prepping in the kitchen. I'm pretty happy with my "Handy Andy".
