Best Way to Anchor a Gazebo Without Damaging the Deck
This spring we put a new deck onto the back of our house.
This time around we went with Trex decking.
Trex is a man-made product that will last as long as we need it and looks gorgeous!
Only problem was that neither my husband or I were too keen on screwing our gazebo into the new decking.
How do you attach a gazebo to the deck with no damage to the deck?
Want to read about cleaning your patio umbrella... I can tell you how I did mine!
We were looking for a solution that will hold down the gazebo we built without damaging the deck.
So you know, the gazebo we bought has replacement canopies so you can use this gazebo for years to come.
That's when I thought about all the beautiful pots I saw earlier in the week at Tuesday Morning.
I brought home 4 pots in grey that match the decking and stuck each leg of the gazebo into a pot.
Next we filled the pot with bricks.
The legs of this gazebo have a little lip on them that is held to the bottom of the pot with the bricks.
I filled each pot with potting soil then planted pansies in each pot.
We had a couple of pretty windy days lately and I'm happy to report that the gazebo stayed put and the pots look beautiful!

Update: The gazebo has been on the deck for 6 years now, all seasons and has never moved an inch!
Each leg of the gazebo has a different beautiful flower growing in it.
