This episode of TLC, Tend Life Community, we’re raising a glass of Zachary’s Ladder by Gorman Wines and climbing straight into backyard bliss with Janell and Michael Miller of M3 Decks & Outdoor Living, because when it comes to outdoor spaces, these two know how to nail it from the ground up.
Born from necessity and built with purpose, the Millers share how a personal challenge led to the creation of M3 Decks & Outdoor Living, and how that need sparked a passion for transforming outdoor spaces. What started as a solution became a mission to bring thoughtful, lasting design to backyards across the Pacific Northwest. We dig into the M3 difference, think steel-framed beauty, biophilic design, and a design-first approach that turns Pinterest boards into yards worth partying in.
We talk trends (yes, outdoor fire features are still hot), phasing big dreams into reality, and the art of knowing when to DIY and when to call in the pros. Michael even spills the beans on wildest deck disasters he’s seen, and trust us, it's a cautionary tale that might have you side eyeing that wobbly railing.
Whether you're dreaming of a cozy outdoor nook, planning a full backyard transformation, or just here for the deck puns, this episode is your blueprint for inspiration. And of course, we wrap things up with a few favorite gems in and around Woodinville.
Tune in, get inspired, get informed, and get decked out.
