Welcome! Thank you for Stopping by!

I’m Emily!

Hey there! I’m a busy mom of three, and I totally get how crazy life can be. That’s why I’m all about making every space work better for your family!

I started Small Outdoor Kitchen Ideas to share simple, smart, and fun ways to turn even the tiniest backyard into a place you’ll actually want to hang out! Let’s make it easy and enjoyable to cook and relax outside, no matter how small your space is!

Got a tiny patio, a small balcony, or a little backyard? No worries! You definitely don’t need a huge space (or a big budget!) to enjoy grilling, hanging out, and making fun memories outside.


I’m so excited to share my own real-life tips that actually work, like easy DIYs, smart ways to save space, and simple ideas to make your outdoor kitchen look great and work for your family.

I can’t wait to help you turn your favorite space into something awesome!

xo, Emily
