So here is what I did. This picture shows the ceiling painted. It used to be the same color as the house. I would have liked it to be a very light blue but I would have to get it approved by the HOA. Here is what the porch looked like before. It is dull and one of the cushions kept blowing off so I removed it for the winter.
Now here is the after.
Here is the bench before I downsized it.
And the after
Now here is what it will look like until I change it out for Summer.
I wish that we had a screened in porch than I could leave everything out and not worry about it blowing away. The next project here will be replacing the ugly storm door. I tried not to get it in the pictures too much. It is getting replaced in the middle of April. I decided not to put a wreath up since last year I had a house finch make her nest in it. Once the new door is installed I can put my wreath up.
Have a great weekend everyone!!!!
Your porch looks so pretty and ready for spring... You really pulled something special together with all your creativity... To bad the wind would blow it all away so you can't have it out all the time, but is sure looks gorgeous in the pictures!!!

Love the ceiling porch color....it makes them stand out and dramatic. Such a great spot to sit for hours....love it! I am in the same boat as you I live about 40 miles south of Chicago and the winds can turn my pillows into soft guided missiles hitting houses a mile down the street. LOL
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful! Love the way you used the bright colors and you could easily just change the flowers and make it a fall decor!
ReplyDeleteI just love your color combinations - they look so warm and inviting! I have always wanted a front porch - we have a beautiful deck but it is not the same as having a front porch. Thank you for sharing on the Four Seasons Blog Hop
ReplyDeleteOooo! The pillows are great, too! ;)
