EXTREME BACKYARD MAKEOVER! | EASY AND UNDER $300! | BACKYARD TRANSFORMATION! | Lauren Yarbrough

[@laurenyarbrough6625]

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope y'all are having a great week! :-)

[@alicegibson6612]

Thanks. Great job. I love my out door space too. ❤

[@alicegibson6612]

[@angelinasheeders7079]

Fabulous job. Super helpful for diy patio that I am currently working on. FYI for fire pit charcoal and wood pellets are great alternatives to wood. I cruise the discount/clearance for any.

[@kkabsher4601]

Y’all did a wonderful job! 👏 Please move the fire pit AWAY from your house. Back of property is better. Lost a friend and her family a couple years ago due to sparks that reignited and blew onto the house overnight. They died from smoke inhalation, of course and firefighters said the fire got big and hot in a matter of minutes and they probably never knew. 😢 Better to be safe than sorry.

[@mimiaquariusharris6244]

I live in North Carolina fire pits have to be 10 feet from your house be safe love what you did. I have the planters I need to clear the area and add the gravel.

[@Sparky-m6h]

I'm deeply sorry for your painful loss! My Dad used to be a volunteer firefighter when he was young. I learned at a very young age the importance of fire safety. So many ways a fire can start, spread quickly or be reignited. I had friends that thought I was always overly cautious. As an adult I worked on a house that had severe fire damage after someone left something on the stove unattended. The first floor had to be completely gutted. The damage was so scary to see. About 10 yrs ago I had to call the fire department after I noticed that a neighbor's previous outdoor fire, they had at night, near their house, it had reignited during a dry & windy day. The fire department stayed about an hour to make sure it was completely out, that the ground was completely saturated with water. Then they waved at me, yelled over to thank me for calling them. I like to keep water on hand when using the BBQ or fire pit that's kept a good distance away from our house. I cover it with water when I'm finished using it.

[@rhondawymer6320]

True!! And campfires or pits in cabin areas can ignite those big trees because their roots run all over the place.

[@sincerelysandi]

I promise the best part of the video is the sweet baby crawling without a carry in the world. So innocent and beautiful💕

[@jcmhanel1]

Beautiful!!! You mentioned the fire pit placement. Code in our city is 15 feet from any building. In our previous home, we put in a nice patio with around an area for a fire pit. Our contractor said it really wouldn’t matter where the fire pit was. I pointed out the house two doors down that The Four Seasons porch looked over our backyard. I said the fire chief lives there. Our neighbor, Jim, the fire chief, said he would never come over with a tape measure.

[@momof3kings402]

Just seeing your little chunky cutie pie crawl around while you were working made my day. The video was all about him n his cuteness for me❤

[@tammyallen7471]

What a project! Fantastic job! You completely transformed that area into a relaxing, functional area that can be enjoyed by your family and friends. Also Happy Birthday Oliver!

[@auntievk9852]

Lauren and Will - you had a vision, had a budget and made it happened!! Looks amazing!! You did a great job!!

[@hollyhold562]

I'm here for the crawling baby any day!

[@ShermVibes]

Soooo beautiful and tranquil. I wish! Just bought my first home at age 50 but by myself, I can't do things like this. It'll take me years to create a peaceful place in my backyard. But this is absolutely inspiring. ❤

[@YungDeath7220]

Your first house?! That’s amazing!! Buying a house is such a big accomplishment!! So proud of you!!

[@MissJenni5309]

Way to go!!! I am the same when it comes to taking a bit to get things done. I've never been able to buy a house and I just turned 56 8 days ago. :/ One day I will! :) If I wasn't in the middle of nowhere Nebraska, I'd come help do what you'd want done in your yard. I can't work anymore (originally cause of a severe work injury as a prison guard then MS decided to try and win...but I'm doing my best not to let it), but I LOVE helping folks, pretty good with a hammer & saw (self taught, thank you KZbinrs!!), SUPER good at finding material needed, etc. But the house I rent is owned by a super duper nice guy, and I can do whatever I want except bad stuff (obviously). The past renters destroyed it (in my eyes) so I have my work cut out, but I LOVE it. :) Again, congrats on your house!!!!!! :)

[@ShermVibes]

@@MissJenni5309 I'm sorry to hear about your work injury! I actually had back surgery and about 4 dozen injections so i'm limited to what I can do too, but I make it work. I am doing a little at a time. Its coming along nicely so far. I can't wait to schedule like a week vacation to really try to get more done than I'd usually get done over the weekend. :) You're such a sweetheart for offering to help! Thank you. I found a coworker that does landscaping! Who knew? He's going to help me get alot done this summer so I am really looking forward to those accomplishments! Good luck to you! Thanks again!

[@mamat792]

Turned out very nice! What I love most is that you took this on together.

[@christinachef]

I needed this. We bought a new house, but can't afford to do the yard yet so I needed some inexpensive makeover ideas. Thank you!

[@heidicolton5070]

You did an awesome job!! So fun to see you and your husband working together. Your little one is so cute.

[@mamaj6028]

The baby, the puppy, y'all had all kinds of help ! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

[@ladypily2946]

Thank you for sharing you just gave me great idea on area I had no idea how to fix

[@sherrizelazny8158]

The transformation was amazing!!! You looked like a resort retreat. Great job!!

[@kathyclarke5899]

Well done! It's beautiful. Great place for morning coffee and devotions.

[@laurenyarbrough6625]

Thank you! Yes! ❤️❤️❤️

[@mssandybeach1]

It has really transformed that area! Looks fabulous...

[@madagirl2026]

The baby crawling on the grass was the cutest thing I’ve ever seen🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👸🏾👸🏾👸🏾 so

[@valeriedevereux5912]

I love pea gravel. Easy to walk on and it always looks good.

[@rhondawymer6320]

I learned a couple years ago that if I put cardboard over the darn plastic or lawn fabric everyone tells us to use, I just don’t need to worry about it again. The cardboard is virtually impossible for grass or weeds to grow up through.

[@m3chacon]

Lauren amazing job!! Just perfect!

[@michellelazarus7139]

Wow !!! What a nice job! Good work, Will and Lauren! Looks so cozy !!!

[@sharon3017]

Very nice job. So sweet.

[@sandeewebb6695]

So cute and cozy! I hope you enjoy so many cozy evenings out there.

[@SalemTheScorpio]

I love it! It looks so cozy without being overdone and fussy.

[@lisaboston9162]

This is so cute. Thanks for all the good ideas

[@cherylzornes6224]

Love this! Very pretty! We have a sitting area that I hope to have professionally covered in flagstone someday. After seeing your diy, I am thinking pea gravel would be great in the interim. Thanks for sharing! What a sweet little family. Good job Momma! Takes me back to doing diys when my kiddos were little. All successful, hardworking adults now. Our children benefit so much from being involved in hard work.

[@amartinez5326]

This is truly a budget patio and I LOVE IT!!! I feel like putting a garden bed at the edge would help to separate it from the lawn and make it feel more cozy❤️

[@Alchemyvoodoo]

I love this! Definitely liking this idea for our backyard.

[@KeeshaJ]

This is so beautiful!!! You all did an amazing job. Very inspiring!

[@judyholbrook7915]

I am doing some of the same in my yard. Pea gravel is the way to go. Your yard looks wonderful. Also love your gray furniture. Enjoy

[@randyrice1429]

Very sweet and cozy. Great video.

[@abbywonder3825]

Cute. I have a brick patio extension. But grass is growing in it. I’m planning on redoing it and maybe extending the walk way

[@sugardailey63]

Great job, everything looks beautiful, thanks for sharing.

[@debbiegaley2331]

Awe! Oliver looks exactly like Will! Backyard looks beautiful.

[@lisarogers5873]

Looks really great and is definitely budget friendly. I have noticed a lot of people using pea gravel with mulch glue you spray on with a 2-gallon yard sprayer. This coats the gravel to keep it from moving and you can spray it off with a hose or blow it with a leaf blower to keep it clean.

[@laurenfleming8361]

Beautiful. Well done on a reasonable budget. This is a pretty common budget for many! Thank you for inspiring us!!💕

[@MarieLoveAsbury]

Omg, Oliver crawling through the grass made the whole video. 😆

[@Kelly12Wolf]

This was such a calming video to watch. Everything started out beautiful! ❤

[@RobinLaneLowe]

Looks great Lauren....Thanks for the outdoor ideas. I know you guys are so going to enjoy that new area.

[@franceskey79]

It looks beautiful!!!!! You and Will did an awesome job!!! I know you will make many memories out there!!!

[@tammywojcik9672]

Your hard work turned into an amazing new outdoor area! Thanks for sharing.

[@lyndastevens9726]

Great job! I think everything looks just great!

[@tjones3721]

Y'all did a GREAT job!!

[@barbaraedwards6999]

Your patio expansion turned out really cute. Best thing it really didn’t cost that much. It will be nice to have with Oliver’s birthday around the corner.

[@mikebarbier1519]

Looks awesome! Careful with the firepit being that close to the siding. Had a friend that used his gas grill under the overhang because it started raining. The heat melted his siding.

[@naturalbeauty25]

Thank you for this idea! Our budget is like yours and this is going to be fabulous!

[@rosalyndrury]

Beautiful!! I know that was a lot of work but WOW!!!

[@aseelA08]

This is beautiful thank you for sharing and your creativity I am moving soon and would love to do this! This is do-able without crazy garage tools that people pre have in their home that normal people do not have

[@melissaLrand]

Looks so cozy! I actually would love to do this in our back yard the kids would love it I’ll have to show my hubby ! TFS !😊

[@nicoledgaspard]

Please don’t show your baby online in his diaper, you have no idea who is saving these images and where they end up on the dark web. Maybe watch youtuberheadlines video she posted today talking about where these videos end up and it’s gross.

[@mariaborden7]

Great job. Love this idea. Thank you for sharing.

[@elainedomalewski4954]

I love all you have done, it looks so cozy and relaxing.

[@shirleybergeron1176]

Thanks for sharing! Great Idea, will be doing this in our yard.

[@JayP0714]

Love the idea! Thanks for sharing!

[@bettyboyd5829]

So nice. Y'all did a great job. Love doing home projects with my husband.

[@zoelynn69]

Your backyard is gorgeous and so cozy. Thank you for sharing your DIY.

[@SimplyKrys]

Baby Oliver is the cutest and sweetest!!😭💛 I love seeing him in your videos and posts!!✨

[@westangelina6874]

Job well done...looks great.

[@0_0merry]

I love that your baby is out in the grass. That's so wholesome and awesome for their sensory input and antibody development.

[@cherylwingate4431]

That looks really nice and easy to do! Thanks for the tips!

[@brandilove123]

Made such a difference, looks so beautiful and cozy! ☺️

[@tams.114]

[@rochellea9652]

Absolutely fantastic

[@kareneakers9540]

Looks really nice! Great job! God bless!

[@brittneystraub3387]

What a great budget friendly idea! 👌 We are wanting to add a fireplace area in our backyard, but concrete is SO EXPENSIVE. I'm going to mention this to my husband. ☺️🤗

[@SimplyUrsula-]

It looks amazing, you both did a wonderful job!!! Such a cozy spot to hang out and relax!👍🧡

[@jewellsuber843]

YOU GUYS DID SUCH A BEAUTIFUL JOB!!! YOU'VE INSPIRED ME!!!!❤

[@llnut4775]

Oh Lauren how sweet this space is! 🔥

[@RachelsSouthernLife]

This turned out so good! Love all the pretty colors! The pea gravel is such a good idea!! ❤

[@20tinkerbear09]

I’m most definitely doing this. Thank you for the inspiration! I loved the way it turned out. !!

[@homereckor]

Flat marshmallows; I've never heard of those, but great idea for s'mores!

[@ElizabethClary1]

Beauty + Budget= my favorite things!!

[@erincostante8694]

Love it!! Glad i found your video. Great ideas. Subscribed

[@caracampbell1715]

Aw Lauren, it looks sooo good!! Creating outdoor areas like this adds value to your home and is just so enjoyable! Excited for Oliver’s birthday coming up!! I’ve been here since you were pregnant with him, and he is just so darn cute!!💙🐮💙🐮💙

[@bethhoppes6388]

This looks so nice! We just tore down our old deck and screened in porch because the deck side was rotting. We are rebuilding one big screened in porch. We are doing it ourselves because the contractor wanted way too much money. I can’t wait until it is done.

[@lifewithamberb]

Super cute. We are wanting to do something like this in our yard also. Thanks for the inspiration ❤

[@aneguerrero2526]

Amazing!! Super cute and on budget ❤

[@poshbyjodygreeneisen5147]

Super cute and cozy!! Love it!

[@alyciatherest4131]

[@Amandahomemaking]

This looks so good!!! You guys did a great job! I love how it turned out! Very cute

[@kathleencook2279]

First of all. Love it! Question: would you consider putting up a sail shade? If so where would you look to buy one and would the posts hold it up tight?

[@caitlinsampson269]

Awe it’s so beautiful

[@laurenyarbrough6625]

Thank you :)

[@maxineedwards8559]

This is so pretty….well done🥰
