FRONT PORCH DRESSED OUT - FINALLY!!

Jeanette S
by Jeanette S
It seemed like the pollen storms would never stop this year. Finally, after trying to get this porch cleaned and dressed out, the 4th time was successful. This photo is taken just at dawn today. I will leave the hanging baskets up until the birds discover them...then they will be moved outside.
I hope we get a few weeks to enjoy the porch before the heat gets here and the momma birds take over. Once they nest, we can't go out there because the momma birds sit in the nearby tree and scream at us! We always give in to their having their way!
Every fall I take in my cushions and rug and then clean the porch and redress it. We love our porches. We got started on cleaning the screen porch and deck yesterday too!
As you can see, not much of the color can be seen from the outside. We are slow getting the planting done this year because we have had so much cleaning and straightening from the sewer line work.

      @Hannah V Thanks! I painted it years ago and it is still in great shape. I just store my cushions and clean up the furniture in the spring!

      @William Thanks William! I wish I could. The only thing missing is a day bed! Dressed out in bright colors of course!
