I gave my dull garden patio a modern makeover using budget buys from B&Q & eBay – people can’t believe how good it looks
A SAVVY homeowner has revealed how she gave her dull patio a chic makeover on a budget – and people are go wild for the very impressive results.
The DIY whizz shared a step-by-step tutorial on how she gave her garden a stylish new look – and all you need is paint and a bargain buy from eBay.
In a clip shared to TikTok, the woman posted an image of her bog-standard patio before the modern makeover – and it’s fair to say it appeared to be in desperate need of some TLC.
She then explains how she started the transformation by giving the paving slabs a “good brush down to remove any dirt.”
Next, she paints each of the paving slabs white using outdoor masonry paint from B&Q, before waiting for it to dry.
Then she takes an ‘extra large stencil’ which she bought from eBay to create a grey mosaic print on each one.
It wasn’t long before the post went viral, racking up over 77,000 views online – with social media users full of praise for the DIY whizz’ handiwork.
“Love it,” praised one.

Meanwhile, a fourth added: “This looks great!”
However, for anyone hoping to recreate the effective look, another person warned: “I did this pressure washed it this year and it’s messed it all up.”
