DIYing a pergola does and don’ts👇🏼

Do-
-Customize it to fit your space
-Let ChatGPT plan everything out for you
-Use Sever weather treated wood
-Stain before assembly
-Accept help
-Prepare for things to change
- Budget (with wiggle room)

Don’t-
-Let the sever weather treated wood sit for days and days- not sealed
-Stain after assembly
-Think you can do it alone in a weekend
-Think everything will go to plan

How I blew my budget👇🏼

Originally I budgeted $500. I ended up spending $780.

The original blue print was simple.
However after the boards warped we had to improvise a solution, which meant braces.
We added the triangle braces on either side of the slats and the structural braces on all four corners.
This meant more wood and more bolts/screws.
We also wanted more shade so we added in more slats, which meant more wood and more L brackets/screws.

I LOVE how it turned out! Leave your questions in the comments ❤️

A little vision, a lot of paint, and Valspar’s Color of the Year — Warm Eucalyptus — completely changed the game.
