What’s Your Ideal Luxury Outdoor Space? Fire Pit or Pool? Jerome Wants to Know! The Top 3 DIY-Friendly Luxury Home Upgrades You Can Do This Weekend

Hello, homeowners! Jerome Garcia here, your trusted luxury home remodeling expert based in beautiful Denver. With over 25 years of transforming houses into dream homes, I’ve learned a thing or two about what truly makes an outdoor space shine. Today, I want to spark a conversation about one of the most debated elements of outdoor luxury living: the fire pit or the pool. Which one calls to you?

But that’s not all! I’ll also be sharing my top three DIY-friendly luxury home upgrades that you can tackle this weekend, so don’t fret if you’re not quite ready to dive into a full remodel. Let's explore these exciting options together!

Fire Pit vs. Pool: What’s Right for You?

The Comfort of a Fire Pit

A fire pit brings warmth, character, and a cozy atmosphere to any outdoor space. Picture this: it’s a crisp Colorado evening, and you're gathered around a flickering fire with friends and family, roasting marshmallows and sharing stories. Sounds inviting, right? Fire pits are not only great for entertainment; they also extend your usable outdoor season, providing a perfect place to relax even when the temperatures drop.

  • DIY Tip: You could create a simple yet elegant fire pit using pavers, stones, and some gravel. There are plenty of tutorials online to guide you through the process, and I’m here to answer any of your questions!

The Allure of a Pool

On the other hand, pools represent luxury and leisure. Imagine those hot summer days when you can take a refreshing dip, host pool parties, or simply lounge by the water with a cool drink in hand. Pools offer a lifestyle choice that can elevate the everyday experience of your home.

  • DIY Insight: While a full pool installation is a big project, you can enhance your pool area with DIY upgrades like adding sleek decking, installing outdoor lighting, or even building a cabana for shade.

So, let me hear your thoughts! What do you envision for your luxury outdoor space? Are you a cozy fire pit fan or a pool enthusiast? Leave a comment below and let’s chat!

Top 3 DIY-Friendly Luxury Home Upgrades for This Weekend

Now that we've got the fire pit versus pool debate rolling, let’s dive into those practical upgrades you can tackle this weekend to enhance your luxury home experience:

1. Upgrade Your Outdoor Furniture

Investing in quality outdoor furniture can truly transform your space. Look for comfortable, weather-resistant options that suit your style. You could even DIY some outdoor cushions or add a fresh coat of paint to existing pieces. Enhance your area with decorative throw pillows or a stylish outdoor rug that draws the eye.

2. Create a Garden Oasis

Adding plants or a garden can bring beauty to your outdoor area and improve air quality. Consider raised garden beds for herbs or flowers, or create a serene corner with a water feature. If you’re short on space, vertical gardens are a fantastic option that can add lushness virtually anywhere.

3. Install String Lights or Outdoor Lanterns

Lighting is crucial in creating ambiance. String lights provide a magical feel for evening gatherings, while lanterns can add a touch of elegance. This is an easy DIY project—you can strategically place lights around your space to illuminate pathways, trees, or seating areas, making your outdoor experience inviting and comfortable.


In conclusion, whether you decide on a fire pit or a pool, the most important thing is creating an outdoor space that you and your loved ones will enjoy. Remember, every small upgrade counts in the journey to achieving your dream home. I encourage you to roll up your sleeves and tackle one of these DIY upgrades this weekend.

And don’t forget to join the conversation! I genuinely love hearing from you, so feel free to share your thoughts or ask questions in the comments section below. Together, let's bring your ideal luxury outdoor space to life!
