Stunning painted patio checkerboard floor - Sweet Parrish Place

Paint a fabulous patio floor checkerboard floor - by Sweet Parrish Place, featured on I Love That Junk

A wood deck floor is just a wood deck floor until you checkerboard it out! Isn't this amazing?

Nicki lucked out and landed an extra can of paint left over from the last owners of her home. She pressure washed the deck, then got to work.

Taping and painting one square at a time, she pressed on. It wasn't a terribly quick job, so be forewarned, you'll need a good long day and a nice soft bed later. But... what a difference!

What I LOVE about this:

Style, baby. It's all about the look. How is it possible just a little bit of paint is able to make such a huge impact?  I'd love to do this on my vinyl deck with black squares! I wonder... it's just a very fun, upscale look that morphs a plain deck into a total head turner.
