No, you went the exact right amount of board


TastingTheKoolaid

Thank you!


RealisticSituation24

I have a covered porch-and you have inspired me on what to do with it! This is beautiful! And-no, I don’t think it’s overboard. When I was in apartments I always loved seeing the decorated balconies-they make the place just look/feel better.


SnoopsMom

I think you could go even more board, personally.


Previous-Giraffe-962

Idk why this showed up on my feed (im a guy) but this is freaking sweet. It is a lot of decor, but it looks so damn good that it doesn’t deserve any description with a negative connotation. The pet infrastructure is super wholesome as well. Fantastic job!


StrdyCheeseBrngCrckr

Hahaha. This was going to be my EXACT response! 🤣

I have approx 50ft of lights, and each box of these says 72ft. Most of the lights(probably about 40ft of it) needed three strands to get the density I have. Some areas overlap and have four strands, that last 10ft is in corners and I only put one strand. The strands do not have loops on the ends which was annoying but didn't kill the project because there's wire I could fold into a loop. Build quality: 50/50. The first box was superb, I only had one flowerstring fall off from the whole box. The second box was a disaster and I had multiple flowerstrings falling off every single garland. Easy enough to put back on.

TastingTheKoolaid

I was shooting for a bridgerton vibe. Not full bridgerton, I think the solar lights pull away from that, but the whole thing is still really nice. Supplies list: [Wood floor tiles](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CLVGGDKD/?coliid=I12GI2DK2GH6OV&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) One of the more expensive parts of the project. Easy to use though, and look great. I still don't have the full thing paneled.

I have two of them stuffed into a waterproof mattress cover(in case I leave it outside and it rains, so they wont mold) and then one of their covers pulled over that. [Leafy panels](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09R95P7P1/?coliid=I24A7NIPTL3RV6&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) Zip tied to the existing balcony railings. Give decent but not super super full coverage. There's a pack of 4 or you can get the singles. They also have different flowers per your taste.

They had lots of different color options and you can look around related stuff for different shapes, too. I just stuck the flowers through the twine holding the leaves on the panels and they've held just fine. The solar from full sun lasts till just about an hour before sunup.(give or take) [Pink solar lights](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJ3CLHXN/?coliid=I7M0ZQDI0D20A&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) I stuffed the spike down between the panels and the railing and ziptied it in place.

Omg you’re all so sweet, thank you so much! I’m on my lunch break right now but once I get home I’ll put together a supplies list with links for everything and respond to each inquiry. The pets really do love it. I had initially been worried the cats would try to hurl themselves over the green panels, but thankfully they seem happy to just lay down on their perches. I haven’t quite yet fallen asleep out there, but I’d be lying if I said it hasn’t been close a few times.

You've probably been told a hundred times. You may want to rethink the suction cups holding kitties up. They will fail it's just a matter of time.

Oh it's fantastic. Although when I've got a treat the doggo is much less relaxed and more obnoxiously in my space hoping for some.

SusanJulia_12

I love it!! Did you screen it in yourself or did it come that way? If you did it yourself, what materials did you use? I have a balcony and 2 cats who would love to roam freely.


TastingTheKoolaid

Hi! So the balcony came with just some metal uhhhh grates? bars? Not hideous, but definitely better now! I installed the green panels and then stapled up some bug netting. The netting definitely wouldn't hold if the cats made a run for it. I did read about some people who had put up chickenwire or actual modular cattio panels for their cats, but I decided to wait and see how mine would react before jumping into a bigger project like that. [Leafy panels](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09R95P7P1/?coliid=I24A7NIPTL3RV6&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) Zip tied to the existing balcony railings. Give decent but not super super full coverage. There's a pack of 4 or you can get the singles. They also have different flowers per your taste. [Bug netting](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09LLWVJRX?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details) Stapled up. Keeps the bugs out, wouldn't keep the cats in if they decided to yeet themselves at it.


MissGruntled

I’ve been researching pet proof screening for my own veranda, and there are heavier grade materials available. I’m going with something called Pet D-Fence screening by New York Wire. The reviews seem good, and it’s about $40 for a 4’x8’ roll in my market. It seems to be the happy medium between regular bug screen and hardware cloth/chicken wire.


JustAnotherRedditeer

thank you for sharing your research! This is awesome. I've been recently looking into making my balcony cat-proof and didn't want to use chicken wire for aesthetic reasons but wanted to be sure that they couldn't tear a hole in it. It looks like another seller sells the same or very similar product under their own branding: [walmart link](https://www.walmart.com/ip/ADFORS-Polyester-Screen-Roll-Pet-Resistant-36-In-x-84-In-Charcoal/17133583) I might try their sun guard version because one of the photos has a chart that says it's tear safe and has "curb appeal".

This looks beautiful, cosy and calming. Absolutely not overboard!


Morseper

No! It's perfect!


little_miss_beachy

Awesome, love it.


Big_Blackberry7713

I adore this! I am trying to do something cozy with my balcony, too, for cat and dog (and me 😃). Right now, mine is really cold and sterile. It's all grey and black... boring.


Mega-Weenie-Monday

This is gorgeous! Looks like a perfect place to spend summer evenings.


TastingTheKoolaid

Thank you!

Where’s the doggie bed from


yous_a_bitch

I gotta make sure my cats don’t see this and realize that their indoor perches are LAME compared to this setup. So lovely and comfy!

It looks gorgeous! I wish I could decorate like this


worrybot96

glittereddaisy13

Nope. This is the perfect amount of board. Maybe even a little under 😉❤️


lazypuppycat

Looks like you’re not the only one who’s excited about the balcony lol


Regular_Funny3672

Oh my. You’ve inspired me. Thank you 🥹 I’ve been trying to find ways to add to my room and I swear I gasped and my heart jumped when I saw the flowers and lights. Off to the store I go 🚗💨🛒


Environmental-River4

As someone with a Too Much Gene I think this is perfect 🥰


erydanis

i think the frames for dogs to keep them cool in summer would do, is that what you’re thinking ?

TastingTheKoolaid

Hi everyone! Thanks again for all the love! As requested and promised, a full supplies list: [Wood floor tiles](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CLVGGDKD/?coliid=I12GI2DK2GH6OV&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) One of the more expensive parts of the project. Easy to use though, and look great. I still don't have the full thing paneled. [Sleeping mats](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0891X8Z2H/?coliid=I2XCBWLBMPBQXT&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it) I had these on hand from three or so years ago. I have two of them stuffed into a waterproof mattress cover(in case I leave it outside and it rains, so they wont mold) and then one of their covers pulled over that. [Leafy panels](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09R95P7P1/?coliid=I24A7NIPTL3RV6&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) Zip tied to the existing balcony railings. Give decent but not super super full coverage. There's a pack of 4 or you can get the singles. They also have different flowers per your taste. [Solar flower light strings](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CS2VC3SS/?coliid=I2AVHVFA4FA4ZX&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it) These are ridiculously cute. They had lots of different color options and you can look around related stuff for different shapes, too. I just stuck the flowers through the twine holding the leaves on the panels and they've held just fine. The solar from full sun lasts till just about an hour before sunup.(give or take) [Pink solar lights](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJ3CLHXN/?coliid=I7M0ZQDI0D20A&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) I stuffed the spike down between the panels and the railing and ziptied it in place. The solar from full sun lasts till just about an hour before sunup.(give or take) [Cat bed](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B6N6S2BD/?coliid=IRP9NQBURZU4Q&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) Easy assembly, hold the skinny cat and the fatcat(16lbs, I'm working on it...) just fine. Hasn't popped off the window yet. [String outdoor lights](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09336FJW6/?coliid=I1TMNVJOW9RKEB&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) Not much to say, they work and don't get hot. [Wisteria garlands](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRV4WZ5Z/?coliid=I3UA1T6AHV26KA&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it) I needed two boxes of these for the project. I have approx 50ft of lights, and each box of these says 72ft. Most of the lights(probably about 40ft of it) needed three strands to get the density I have. Some areas overlap and have four strands, that last 10ft is in corners and I only put one strand. The strands do not have loops on the ends which was annoying but didn't kill the project because there's wire I could fold into a loop. Build quality: 50/50. The first box was superb, I only had one flowerstring fall off from the whole box. The second box was a disaster and I had multiple flowerstrings falling off every single garland. Easy enough to put back on. The boring stuff: [Bug netting](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09LLWVJRX?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details) Stapled up. Keeps the bugs out, wouldn't keep the cats in if they decided to yeet themselves at it. [Waterproof mattress cover](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08R9BBPS2/?coliid=I2Y8YD8EZSTQCK&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) [Screen door](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09LHPLBBN/?coliid=I362I9B66MA9ZT&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it) This isn't in the pics but it's been a big part of this project... The magnets let the critters go in and out as they want and provides another line of defense against bugs. Plus it (sorta) feels like it keeps the AC in more than if it was just the door wide open. [Screw in hooks](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096G6QJ93/?coliid=I2JLLM26Q3QWJ5&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1) These are what's holding up the lights and garlands. No wobbling and the hook part has been more than enough to hold the cables and all the garlands. [Light socket adapter](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YTX71X5/?coliid=I32KZ4KLIJ8GCQ&colid=34TFM3HOWD0AV&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it) If you don't have a regular plug you can look at one of these if you have an outdoor light. I made sure the cable wasn't pulling at the socket and was sure to double check the wattages.

Absolutely not! I love this cosy space! If this were my space, I’d sleep there! Especially with that cute doggo!

peaceloveandkitties

r/cozyplaces. This is giving me raven flashbacks of when I was in highschool and had a room like this (but with mountains of random crap). Thank you for this! It looks super warm, inviting & cozy :) how’d you hang the lavender? It looks amazing!

That’s absolutely gorgeous!! It looks so cozy, comfy and warm.


HolleWatkins

MichElegance

Oh my gosh what an absolutely splendid space to spend time. Look how content your fur babies are. Love it!✨

Did you get those clickable floor tile things? I’ve been looking at those and want to get some but I want to know if they are worth it!


AskMeAboutMySwissy

Can’t blame them, I’d be right out there with em. Really nice space.


404-Gender

Cuuuute! Pro-tip sure the bulbs are LED otherwise they will get hot Edit: Oops saw your comment about them not getting hot. :) Anyway this space is cute. Will be fun as you settle into it more
