It’s May, which means that holiday weekend we all know and love is approaching. Memorial day usually sparks the opening of summer fun while celebrating the Veterans that serve our country.

The warmer weather sparked the D.I.Y and backyard decor flame, which lead to some shopping inspiration and a tool belt! First, I visited the wonderful world of Pinterest where I was able to match some of my favorite colors and yard necessities with our yard layout. I knew that I wanted to offer more shade for the kiddos when they’re out back having lunch on the deck or a cozy transformational space for movie night out back.

I narrowed down the exact fit for our yard to a Hanover Pergola and couldn’t be happier.

The easy to assemble product arrived just in time to get the yard ready for summer!

Could you believe that I put it together alone, with a little help from my friends (the twins held the shade as I clipped them into the hooks) other than that you can put this all together yourself, then sit and sip your favorite hot or cold beverage right after.
