Small Balcony Makeover On a Budget | Turning my balcony into a cosy paradise | DIY Balcony Makeover

Hi Lovelies!
Can you believe Summer is right around the corner? I am trying to stay ready by creating an urban garden oasis that will help me stay cool and keep the lemonade coming.
My balcony is pretty small 8*2, but no matter how small the space, with the right pieces and motivation, the ideas are endless.
This is the flooring used in this video-

I love your style! Your balcony design is just beautiful! I am in the process of finally tackling my small balcony after living here for 6 years. This video is inspiring and gives me the desire to complete my downtown oasis. I am 78 years young and decorating gives me so much joy! Thanks for sharing!!!!

[@Alexismbordeaux]

Thank you so much, Nori! You are too kind. ❤️

[@fatearthbackyardfarm]

This video brought me so much joy. Your balcony is absolutely beautiful. This is that "me" space every woman deserves after she has given so much of herself to others. I wish I had a patio. Thank you, sis. This did my soul good.

[@Alexismbordeaux]

Thank you so much for watching! Yes, we need our own “me space”, so important for our well-being. Glad you enjoyed the video. ❤️

Lovely decoration, cool. I think it would be much better if you're painting the bricks in black colour. Matte finish is great! Just my opinion 😊

[@myeyes9574]

Of course I just subscribe to your channel. So peaceful. Trying to get rid of a lot of unnecessary stuff. Not sure if I want to become a minimalist. However, it looks like that the road I’m headed. Thank you so much for your beautiful video’s. Such an inspiration ❤️🙏🏽✝️🥰

[@Alexismbordeaux]

@@myeyes9574 thank you for subscribing and your kind words. Whatever you decide, ensure that it aligns with who you are and highlight what brings you joy. Minimalism (for me) was not a sustainable way of life, I like an airy and clutter free environment, but know that everything I own have some sentimental value, so I don’t subscribe to the idea of throwing things away, just because. I have found simple and slow living to be a much better balance for my lifestyle. Moderation is key. Good luck on your journey. 🥰
