Oiled Decks

Not an exciting project, but a necessary one!

We were told to leave the deck to cure for a year and then have it oiled. So that was done today. After it was cleaned and hosed down it, and the outdoor furniture, received 2 coats of oil. And what a difference!

Up to now we've really not used the deck in a meaningful way. But that, friends, is about to change!
I am planning some nice outdoor throws and cushions on the day beds, some outdoor art, some more side tables and perhaps a water feature. Am still deciding the overall look. Was thinking maybe something slightly Moroccan feeling?

For now, though, clean and oiled is a good start!

Before

After. Now I need to think outdoor styling :)
