Im still trying to find the reed shades. Im in Alabama and I can't find a Japanese dollar store. HELP WITH THIS AWESOME IDEA...

[@LaughCryDIY]

Agh! I feel you. Not sure how big of a space you’re doing. If it’s smaller, I might repurpose cheap beach mats like this: seasonsofamerica.com/products/straw-beach-mat I’ve seen those at the regular dollar store. If it’s a big space, you can order a bulk order of the mats from Daiso directly: www.daisojapan.com/search.aspx?searchterm=Reed Or you can get larger strips of reed fencing via hardware stores: www.homedepot.com/p/Vigoro-4-ft-H-x-8-ft-W-Natural-Peeled-and-Polished-Reed-Fencing-4477301/203580840?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US Depending how much space you’re covering, it might not be so pricey.

[@jaybol]

I was enjoying this episode until you renamed the tree. Billy Tree Williams was an excellent name. Fortunately, I started enjoying myself again when the girl with the hand bandage was trying to move the umbrella and the designer/client rapport gave me confidence this backyard was going to be outstanding. In the end, seeing Jake’s friends having a good time demonstrated Laugh Cry DIY’s ability to make even the smartest author/podcast star/comedian stand out from the pack.
