Back Porch Styling by Somewhat Quirky Design

by Somewhat Quirky

My favorite outdoor seating area. It started with repainting the porch, then I rebuilt the antique wicker rockers. Then I arranged some other fab vintage pieces. It's colorful and fun. Great for relaxing with a book...or a glass of wine....or a piece of cake!

I love how the wicker rockers turned out. The one on the left is over 100 years old. The one on the right is from somewhere around 1960. They turned out beautifully. You can see how they looked originally [url=http://www.somewhatquirkydesign.com/2012/06/rock-with-me-i-gotta-tell-you.html]HERE.[/url} You're definitely going to want to see what they used to look like!

We bought rugs to cover up the gross painted concrete patio. I love my chippy antique hoosier cabinet. I eventually had to paint it. You can see that transformation HERE.

S.Beard...I agree about getting together- and I live within driving distance!

  @Susan Come on by! I will say that my back yard has suffered due to me being out of town all of May. I actually still have my Halloween pumpkin on the porch!

I love all of this. ESP, the crib. I have wanted to do this for a long time, but finally gave my son the old crib which was his Dad's. I still have my kids crib in attic.
