After such a long and harsh winter, getting to enjoy the outdoors is going to feel incredible! There is nothing like sitting on your deck reading a book in the sun, or having family and friends over for a BBQ. Early spring is a great time to start thinking about how to enhance your personal outdoor oasis.

Here are a few DIY projects that you can take on now so you can enjoy the fruits of your labour come summertime:

Patios and Decks

With Fusion Stone, any deck or patio can be upgraded with very minimal effort. For a simple transformation try using any of our products as trim around patios or at the base of your deck. Our stone will mix well with other components, such as wood, siding, or brick.

Outdoor Kitchens

With long Canadian winters, it’s critical that we make the most of the good weather when it’s here. Doing as many activities outside as you can during the summer months will keep your family active and happy.

If you enjoy eating outside, why not cook outside too? Outdoor kitchens have become immensely popular over the last few years, and we can help you dress yours up for enhanced appearance and functionality. Fusion Stone can be used as the facing for cabinets, countertops or stoves, and can be styled in a variety of patterns and hues. Adding Fusion Stone to your kitchen will increase durability, whether your kitchen is outdoors or inside.

Fireplaces

Being cozy next to an outdoor fireplace is the perfect way to spend an evening, and Fusion Stone products make any fireplace dazzle. Adding our stone to your fireplace will give it a rustic and enchanting appearance, while adding protection from the outdoor elements. It’s a simple project that you can take on to extend your outdoor enjoyment, even on cool summer evenings.

Chimneys

The last thing that your outdoor paradise needs is an eyesore like an outdated chimney. Fusion Stone is designed to give any chimney a facelift that will never chip or rust. It’s an economically smart idea to add not only curb appeal, but backyard appeal as well.

Sheds and Playhouses

Use our products to add some rugged texture to your shed or garage. Doing whole walls (or even just the trim), will add an additional decorative element to your backyard.

Try applying the same stone or design that’s on your home to your shed to add a stylish flow to your property. For a completely cohesive outdoor look, consider adding Fusion Stone to the side of your children’s playhouse. It will make them feel like they’re in a castle, while keeping a charming appearance throughout your backyard.

With Fusion Stone, the outdoor options are endless. From retaining walls to seating areas, to the sides of stairs, garden boxes or even ponds. Let your imagination roam and let us help you make your next DIY idea a reality.
