Out back it was time to give the deck floor and steps a little TLC too. With all the direct sun, foot traffic, furniture and plant pots, it takes a beating. We bought a whole new gallon of our deck stain in dark brown (actually called wood chip) because we also plan on using it for our patio furniture next. After a good cleaning, I put a fresh coat of stain on the deck floor and the tops of the rails. Now it looks much better and is ready for another season.

Outdoor Floors
Over the weekend we had a big push to clean up and refresh our outdoor floors. As part of our front porch mini-makeover, we oiled the mahogany wood porch floor to bring back the shine. I also did a fresh coat of white paint on the porch posts where things were showing some wear after 2.5 years. Even the steps got a second coat or gray paint for extra durability.
