I'm with ya on the toxicity of the heated vinyl, outside should work better.
ReplyDeleteYour patio turned out fabulous and Trux seems to approve!
Yes, I agree... I'd think out-gassing would be a problem. We have a Frank Sinatra vinyl banner that actually closes my sinuses if I get to near it when we're doing our Sinatra show at retirement homes!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! That's quite a blocking effect! Pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteLove the look, but I agree... the chemicals/smell of hot vinyl... that I could do without.
ReplyDeleteThat looks really cool and I like the creative 'thinking outside the box'- Health and clean air though- we need that to live-
ReplyDeleteLovely blog!
