I transformed my backyard into my dream space in a week
A TIKTOKER has revealed how she gave her backyard a facelift in just one week.
She adorned her outdoor space with finds at a steal, including a $39 fire pit and $30 lighting.
Kylie Katich (@kyliekatich) shared her outdoor DIY project in a video on TikTok.
"This is how much money I spent to transform my entire backyard into my dream space in under a week," she began, revealing the costs day-by-day.
"Day one, I kept things simple. I did all my weeding, and I mowed my lawn for my very first time. The only thing I bought this day was a gardening kit for $28.
"Day two got spendy with $323 on flowers and $10 to buy staples to hide my hose.
"Day three came and I said, well, I need more flowers and soil. And I bought a gardening bed. The plants and soil cost me $240. The garden bed was $100," she said.
On days four and five, she adorned the space with flowers, a playhouse, and even ambient lighting.
"The lights were $30," she said.
She spent the last day cleaning the space to bring out all her hard work.
"Finally, on the last day, day six, I did a deep clean, but luckily, I already had all this stuff, so I didn't spend any money," she said.
She shared clips of her finished backyard, with all the amenities that come with a comfortable outdoor space.
"On reveal day, I added this $39 fire pit, $8 watering can, and a wind chime for $9," she said.
She revealed how much a typical job like hers could cost.
"I need you know the average cost for landscaping is between $3,300 and $13,000," she said.
Kylie expressed her pride in pulling off the project at a fraction of the typical cost.
"I feel extra proud about building the space for $1,172," she said.
