We recently bought our first home together after getting married. It had this empty courtyard, which was dirt and stones and was very uninviting and lacked inspiration. So it was on my first DIY to do list. Bunnings helped me out completely, gave me a diagram and timber dimensions and fixings recommendations. Was a tremendous help and I think it's come up great. We now have furniture and enjoy the warmer days out here.
Now onto the next job...
