Even though it is only April here in Chicago, it is time to start sprucing up the yard! I am a little hesitant to plant anything this early (due to our crazy Chicago weather it isn’t unheard of to have a snowstorm in May). However, I am more than happy to head to Big Lots for affordable items that make my patio area look 100% better. We have such a large area to work with, so I tried to work on several areas for the Big Lots! Patio Refresh For Under $100 Challenge. Here is what my yard looked like before I started on this project:

I know, my yard is pretty sad. That's why I was excited to check out what Big Lots had to offer to help spruce up the yard. Did you know that Big Lots has a wide range of high-quality, brand-name items for your home (aff) including furniture and mattresses, seasonal and patio, home (aff) décor, grocery, and consumables? I had no idea (and may have purchased a Diet Coke heading out the door). Now, I didn't have a big budget to turn my outdoor space into a backyard oasis. However, that wasn't an issue at all! I got all of this for less than $100!

We got so many awesome items that we could use to make our yard more fun! They really had everything from patio furniture to gazebos to fun items. The first thing I set up was the solar ground lights. We have a problem at night with people not realizing where the concrete ends and where the grass starts. These lights should help. (Plus, I wanted to show you how well they actually work! I was impressed!)

I also decided to spruce up where we grow strawberries with some pinwheels.

I saved the best for last. We collect gnomes here, so we created a little gnome garden for all of us to enjoy. I think the kids and I had the most fun putting this together!

Big Lots is your destination for quality, stylish and affordable outdoor furniture and accessories. You can see all of the awesome products we were able to get to redo our backyard into a relaxing oasis. You can shop online or in-store for accessories like these at amazing prices.

Check our Big Lots and tell me what you'd purchase for your relaxing backyard oasis!
