DIY Deck Projects that Glows in the Dark
If you search “DIY Deck Projects” on Pinterest, you will find a plethora of tutorials and ideas to make your deck a great place for relaxing, grilling, and just all-around fun. However, if your deck is looking a little run-down it can nudge the backyard bar-be-que towards the bottom of your list simply because it’s supposed to be a pain to update your deck. Or is it???
So many home-owners are frustrated because they believe their low maintenance deck should look like new even years later. But that’s just impossible! Driving your car down the street after a snow storm will have it covered in salt, slush and more. And just like you would wash and wax your car, to keep the beauty of your deck in top condition, you need to clean and restore any stains, minor scratches, and the weathering it took throughout the year.
Strong bright sun, sunscreen, BBQ grease, pet stains, wet leaves, and even kids tracking mud, it just makes sense. A good scrubbing and a little restoration is well your time as the season’s very first DIY deck project you should tackle.
More Than Just a Cover-Up
If your PVC deck is simply faded or needs to be revived back to its original state, you only need to Restore your Deck. If you have a heavily soiled deck, you should consider cleaning it first before applying a revitalizing solution. We recommend a Pro-Grade Pre-Treatment Cleaner for your PVC, Composite and Wood deck. To restore your PVC deck back to its original luster and shine, use this Revitalizing Solution. While other products may be cheaper, it won’t do the job right. Do it right the first time and enjoy the many benefits!
Your First Backyard Party
Once you have the deck ready for guests, you can plan the party you’ve always wanted! Now here’s something for the kids to do: A beautiful and cost-effective decoration is a “fairy jar.” All you need is a jar, some glow sticks, and glitter!
Step One: Cut open the glow sticks and paint the contents on the inside of the jar.
Step Two: Add glitter to the jar and SHAKE it (like a Polaroid picture!).
Step Three: Attach the lid and enjoy your new fairy jar!
Fairy Jars can be used to shine glittery light on your beautiful and rejuvenated deck!
Get a few blowing bubbles and buy extra glow sticks. Cut open the glow sticks and pour into the bubble solution. The glow-in-the-dark bubbles will have the kids running around enjoying the night just as much as you!
