I love how your animals enjoy your beautiful patio as well

I love to see that people take care of their homes 💜

Great work! That flower bed is wonderful. And yes, keep the chickens in for this season.

I love the chickens, LOL I know you find them annoying eating your beautiful plants but they put a big smile on my face while watching this video.

Great job Amber! I particularly love those fabulous wooden chairs that you transformed with one coat of paint. Love watching people do realistic makeovers on their homes...makes me feel I can do the same!

A Canadian woman on HGTV did the best deck I have ever seen. Dream big! You have the land!!

I do love all the animals!!

Your patio looks so nice! The view of your property is gorgeous! Wish I could help with the chickens. I think putting them back in their coop is your best bet. They’ll be happy there too. 🤗

Love your yard. The patio looks great 👍 Maybe a 3’ picket fence will keep the chickens away.

Your Patio came out Beautiful

Looks fabulous

Turned out beautiful definitely gave me some ideas. I will be cementing some poles into pots that is an awesome idea

I’d suggest a fence around the coup. I don’t know of anything to deter them, but if they messed up my flowers, we’d be having fried chicken for Sunday dinner. 😆 I love the rug and your updated chairs.

Looks beautiful

Looks great Amber!

Just found your video but I have a suggestion about chickens in your planters……find willow limbs or regular branches and place around in the pot edge and they’ll stay out….also take narrow pieces of wood and make a fence around the edge tying jute around it in whatever design you do….the plants grow thru it but before that the chickens won’t like the barrier and should stay away. Another idea is to buy a electric portable fencing as homesteaders do and move the chicken run around fertilizing and trimming the grass but don’t let them stay too many days in one spot. Your planter around the patio maybe place some of those stones on top of the mulch to keep them out. We get cats from the farms come and use our beds as litter boxes……I lay pine cones and put curly sticks in my pots…the beds get dark tulle you can buy cheap from Amazon by the yard and place around the beds……buying black would match your mulch…..this year I’m placing black cloth grow bags around my sitting area which use to have a swimming pool…..taking a round outdoor rug and placing it in the middle then the bags around as a border incorporating some old wood boxes for planters and some height. I’m using your idea for the pole bucket to hang lights off of …setting the bucket inside a box then having plants cascading down over the edges…. We are not raising chickens anymore…..too many predators and a lot of work so I buy from local egg sellers. Also we like to camp and no one is near us to farm sit.

Love the gliders, great choice of color!

You did a great job! Chicken soup 🍲 😋

Wonderful job…looks great

It looks terrific. Thank you for sharing this.

Looks great

Great job 👍🏽thank for sharing

Looks very nice, great view. Only thing I Would had done is to paint the concrete.

Very, very nice!

You worked so hard and your patio turned out beautifully, I would definitely be putting up a pen for the chickens, they will be just fine, there's no reason to let them destroy your yard! Tfs 🌷

To keep chickens out of your tub flowers, make a decorative chickenwire cloche to go over the plants. Use heavy guage wire as a frame, or go rustic and use willow or branches from your yard (or the neighbor's yard) to create a frame, then line the frame with chicken wire and secure it to the post and over the pots. For the border, create a hoop cloche or if the chickens ignore the hosta leaves and just prefer the dirt, lay chicken wire over the dirt in 8x18-inch strips tacked down with turf staples. Overlap the strips and place around the stems of the potted plants (seeded plants with grow up through the wire). When you need to dig up of plant a new plant, just pull up the 8×18 strips overlaying the dirt you need access to. Chicken wire will also prevent squirrels from digging up fresh bulbs.

Everything is so beautiful 😍 The chickens are living their best life 🤣♥️

Beautiful

and Mrs T well done all looking good

New to your channel. I have looked at over 20 diy videos and all they did was buy stuff and called it diy. I took your idea with the large blue pots and used it for a patio umbrella stand but, myflowers are fake 😊Love love those rockers.

Very nice ❤

It all turned out nice. But you need a slash of color over there by the rockers, a potted plant and pillows.

very pretty!

U did an amazing job

Looks so cozy. Love how it turned out.

Turned out very nice! Love the blue chairs! We mix hot sauce, garlic, Dawn dish detergent and water. Put in spray bottle and spray on plants to keep deer away. It works if you do it every time it rains or you get a heavy dew.

It looks very cozy and inviting. Amber, you and your Family will make many memories out there. Enjoy!!!

Hello, I like your patio area. I would plant some lobelia Laguna Dark Blue flowers between the hostas. It will carry on the blue that you love and it will help the hosta area look more fuller.

With our chickens we used to sit outside for a hour or so a day and just spray them away with the hose until they learned. Chickens are smarter than you think!

Beautiful 😍😍

I only work outside early in the morning or later in the evening when it cools off. I have well water can't use a power washer. You did a great job.

Love the chairs ... Everything looks great. Nice job.

Love the patio!!!

Don't worry, I also had to put my foot down and keep the chickens in their own yard instead of mine lol. They were destroying my expensive rose bushes and eating all of our stuff no matter what I did! To make your husband feel better, they all still lay an egg a day for us even though they don't get the whole yard 😊

Not sure if this will work, but sprinkle some cayenne pepper around the flower beds. Try a 3ft barrier at first, then you can go to 1ft. This works for dogs, but maybe chickens, too? Worth a try.

Hey hun here watching. Can't wait to do my back patio and front porch over the weekend.

I love that you show all the things in your video. Real life. Hard work. I was born, raised and i raised my kids in Ohio. GO BUCKEYES!

Que lugar lindo ! Amei a transformação.....parabens !

Your patio is beautiful! Great job!!!

Everything looks great I lovet thanks for sharing.

Looks great...thanks for sharing

Your patio turned out beautiful, what a great choice of color as well. I actually just used our pressure washer for the first time on our patio, house and front porch, it is now my new best friend! Always love your decorate videos...TFS and have a great weekend on your porch! Good luck with your 🐔 🐔🐔🐔

I clean my patio with bleach and water, works great. And doesn’t hurt the grass or plants

Turned out to be a cozy out door space. Summer is here, I doubt you will be spending much time indoors with that beautiful space ....xxx

Good job

Nice job💕💕. Lots of work but well worth it!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Your patio turned out beautiful...I love watching your videos I always get so much inspiration from them thank you so much for putting in i am sure a lot of hard work into your videos hope you have a wonderful rest of the week...

It turned out amazing! It also took me 3 days to do my patio makeover ❤

You should build an outdoor chichen wire area so that they can be out without that total free range. You did an awesome job...

Looks great. I like the flower beds. We have hostas at our new home. Haven't had them before.

it's all neatly done... the side boards by the wall colored dark brown?? maybe if the down part should also be painted same dark brown it'll look different and place some white pebbles along side the back of rocking chairs it'll be lookin nice too.. only suggesting.. more lil potty green plants on table tops the Lil side table hanging plants could do .. greenery makes a lot of difference really... thank yu... YUR guards dogs are beautiful too... chickens are fatty nice.......

👍 video ! 💘 the gliding teal chairs beautiful. 💘 the plants on wall on the 🏠. The 🌼 bed is also very nice too. Very pretty ! 👍

Looks great!! Love those plants 🪴 in the frames on the wall. Great idea!!

It looks so relaxing 💖💖

Very nice.. I think Jeri Landrs( she is on you tube) uses chicken wire to gently lay over the plantings to keeper chickens away. Look her up she is so creative with the chicks ha

That turned out beautiful ❤️

I enjoyed watching the change in your patio is beautiful , love it👍🥰

I loved watching this video! Your patio came out beautiful❤

If you are reading this comment, please give yourself a pat on the back. You should be proud of yourself. Beautiful.

Use herbs lavender Spearmint and merigolds keep s chicken Away ☘️

Use the power washer on the furniture too. So much easier. Check out the wonderful Amish lady on White Cottage/Country furniture. She is inspiring.

Nice job on the patio & the chairs look kind of like rocking Adirondack chairs.

❤️❤️❤️

It looks really great Amber...love your little helper..

I keep our chickens contained in a large run so they remain safe from predictors and out of my yard. The flower pots were beautiful!

Girl i also live in ohio i feel ya about the weather

The flower bed turned out very nice... Good luck with the chickens. Lol

👏👏👏

I would fence off the property on the other side of the bridge so the yard by the house was family use and not chicken use. It seems you have more than enough area for them across the bridge.

Chicken wire wrap round your blue buckets x

Love the redo. Looks good. Hope your family enjoys the outdoors this summer. The chickens are a whole other problem. Maybe you could put some chicken wire around your plants. Or something like that. Hope someone has a better idea. Good luck. 🦋🦋💓

My daughter also has a home in the country they built and also has chickens...they destroy her gardens and mulching. After several cry sessions she stopped letting them out to range.

Try vinegar in your plants...it worked for us to keep the bunnies out of our flowers..

You did a beautiful job!! Linda from New Orleans

My grandfather kept his chickens free ranged and they stayed pretty much in the back of the back yard . When they would occasionally ventured in the front yard he would run towards them and flap his arms and yell in his gruff voice. They learned to stay out of the front yard.

I remember last years video - looks good!! 🐝🌻🐓

You could try using bird netting or chicken wire over top of your plants to keep the chickens out. It might not be as pretty to begin with but once your plants begin to grow and get taller they will grow through the wire or netting and it will barely be noticeable then. I've done this in the past when we had chickens and it worked well for me. I mean the chicken are mostly after the insects and worms in the soil. That's for your flower containers, but I don't know what to do for the larger plants such as Hosta. Sorry. Maybe some help is better than no help. lol xx

Definitely need to get some rock for my back patio because when it rain it floods the back patio

You did a fabulous job on your patio! Looks great! Love the blue chair! Do you use your power washer on your furniture?

Great Job!! Love those chairs Yea Dad!!!

Your patio looks amazing. You are going to have way more seating space once you get the ac unit moved! I can't help you on the chickens...maybe build them their own enclosed run with some yummy planted goodies just for them. There are few ideas on Pinterest.

I would be chasing those chickens with the hose and a broom. Definitely might affect their egg laying but I would be steamed if they chewed up all my plants. Wish I had a better idea for you to keep them away. Thank you for sharing 🙏🇨🇦

There would be no question at my house about the chickens! They would be gone in a heartbeat! Pretty flowers & nice landscaping is better than chickens!! Hands down! Buy eggs at grocery store!

Lovely! What a wonderful shady patio! I love the blue on the chairs. What kind of plants are those in the hanging baskets?

It looks really good Amber! I love your chairs. Your chickens are gonna tear up your flower beds. I would put them behind a fence and let them run about. Animals will tear yp everything you have. Anyway you did an awesome job. Stay safe! God Bless!

Yes we have chickens too 17 of them,.I only let mine out when I'm out...so I can chase them away when they go near where I don't want them...our plants...they lay the same amout of eggs no matter what one a day!! Mine seem just as happy as when I left them out nonstop and my garden and flowers r actually thriving!! Or stick to high plants only I guess!!

Love the color rug from dollar. I saw the same one and wanted it but I needed 2 and they only had 1.

Hi Amber, really enjoyed your video. Ask your husband if he has ever heard of the phrase, " Happy Wife, happy life" ? Lol, Fence those chicks in, give enough room to run around and they will still lay enough eggs for your husband to be happy and you'll finally have a beautiful patio to be proud of. By the way, I love your blue chairs and the rug. They came out gorgeous!! Can you tell me the name and brand of the paint agin please ? I love it!😍 of the

Loved watching the transformation 😍 In the comments to see if anyone has tips on the chickens cuz I have the same problem!! 🙄

Everything turned out very nice! Calming and relaxing (if the chickens will let you)😆
