An old table has a new mosaic top, thanks to plates bought at second-hand stores. The plates were broken inside a plastic bag, then the shards were arranged on the tabletop and grouted.
Homeowners Jenna and Steve Pelaez want to transform their small yard into a cozy patio retreat. Designer Karen McAloon's wine-country-inspired design includes an arbor to accommodate grape vines plus a wine-barrel water feature, flagstone patio and olive plants. The results--a perfect place to hang out and plenty of Tuscan ambience to enjoy.

The new flagstone patio provides a welcoming place to sit, and a grapevine arbor frames the area. The neighbor's dog has been fenced out of the area, and the homeowners can enjoy the fragrance of the new plants, including lavender, oregano, thyme and rosemary.

A local winery was giving old barrels away, so one of them becomes a water feature. A hole is drilled in each end and a tube run from one end of the other. Water is pumped up the tube, spills over the side of the barrel and is caught by a second barrel that's been cut in half and partly buried in the ground for stability.
