Earlier this year my husband and I (well, okay, mostly I) wanted to get an extension to our backyard deck, but we were on a tight budget because of some other home renovations we had going on. And since the choices were to either postpone the deck extension or to completely forget about it, I decided I wasn’t ready to give up on my dream of having an extended and layered backyard deck, I turned towards the Internet for help. Help came in the face of a life-changing tutorial I found on Second Wind of Texas’ website. The tutorial really did change our lives (and our backyard), because it provided an amazing solution to my problem – a gorgeous deck addition for less than $300! That’s right, there is a way to build a deck addition and not break your budget on it. This tutorial came with amazing instructions, thoroughly described step-by-step process, additional tips, and of course – stunning images of the work in progress. Not only did I managed to convince my husband to follow this tutorial and finally build the extension, but we also customized it according to our family’s needs and preferences and it looks absolutely adorable now! Our guests were fascinated by what we managed to do with our old small backyard deck and our kids love it as well, since they now have more room to play without getting all dirty in the backyard. If you want to build a deck addition in your yard or you’re simply looking for an inspirational DIY project on home improvements and home renovation, I strongly advise you to check out Second Wind of Texas’ tutorial.
