One of the best things about summer is spending time outdoors, and Esposito and I really try to make use of our yard by grilling dinner and eating al fresco every night that the weather permits. Though our patio area has taken a backseat to other house projects we have pending, now that we are making more use of our yard, we are starting to long for a prettier space to enjoy. Of course, budget considerations won't let us do too much too soon, but I am looking forwards to making it a prettier space no less.
One look I'm loving lately is potting benches. Now, I don't have the greenest of thumbs so I don't do much gardening (you should see what my
herb garden looks like now - poor plants!) but I think a potting bench could be so useful for entertaining as a place to put beverages, utensils, and food while still serving its utilitarian purpose when not entertaining. Plus, a potting bench tends to look so charming when staged. Behold:
I must figure out a way to make one of these ... stay tuned! Do you have a potting bench?

I have been eyeing potting benches lately as well, but I am just not a green thumb so I'm not sure it would be useful/practical to have one. They are so cute though!!!
