I haven't fixed up my deck as an outdoor European cafe yet…maybe this weekend.  the inspiration below is from a new favorite blog, the haystack needle.  my closest-deck-neighbor lives on her deck…from early morning to late at night – since the bugs have yet to arrive in full force.  Perhaps it's time to join her – occasionally giving the 'sup nod or saying hello.  

Hmmm..perhaps my deck will not be an entire cafe…but more of a personal cafe for two… or six if hosting a dinner party.  that would be me hosting the party – not my deck.  imagine the invitations:  "The Deck invites you to party Cafe Style at 106.  And Sunny might be there too."

    I would also recommend using a porous surface sealer to protect against outdoor elements

    That’s a charming design! It actually looks like a real café. I love how it has a very homey and comforting ambiance. That would be great with some relaxing bossa nova music in the morning!
