i was so amazed at how simple and ingenious this design was

we used behr paint in island oasis hdc-md-09

we used of the sample sizes in this color

i also covered four pillows in the same material

during

cinderblocks

" x 4" x 10 ft. lumber

concrete adhesive

cushions

tip: make sure the ground is level before setting everything in place

set cinderblocks vertically

allow approximately ft. of distance before setting the next side of cinderblocks

out on both sides. if you want smaller seating

once you are happy
