Making a Splash

A serving area created using Acacia Project Panels and a tiled splashback made this outdoor entertaining space more practical.

The project

 

Our outdoor entertaining space was used frequently, but I’d get out the camping tables to use as a servery.

 

By adding a basic frame using H3 timber, Acacia Project Panels, a tiled splashback and UN-REAL hedges, this space is now more practical and the perfect entertaining area.

We did all this for under $1000 in a couple of weekends.

@craftyhopper I just adore the tile you chose for your outdoor area, the black really makes the greenery and the timber pop! I am truly amazed that this was under $1000 and only took a couple of weekends - well done 😎
