Southern Seazons: Spring front porch part 2

I finally got the bench done yesterday. This morning I got the back area of the front porch decorated. I am still waiting for the cushions and pillows that will go with the table and chairs so they are not on the porch yet. I guess there will be a part 3. The cushions are supposed to be here tomorrow and the pillows were just shipped out yesterday.

Here is the bench.

Here is the before picture. The bench is black with green. I have had this bench for twelve years. We have another one on the back porch. I might just cut it down too. My hubby cut the slats and the cast iron back for me. Of course something always has to go wrong. One little piece of the iron broke off so I had to glue it back on. I painted the cast iron parts bronze metallic and the slats almond.

Now for the decorations. Love this look.

More pictures.

I really love the look of the bench cut down to the smaller size, amazing.
I love the how your colors came together.
We are expecting 10" of snow before tomorrow in up state Vermont, gosh darn it!
