Back porch blues part 2

Now that the upper deck is done I was able to organize the porch below.  While the deck area was under construction all the patio furniture was stored in this area.  I still have a bit more decorating to do in the corner area and I am adding some curtains also.  I decided to use canvas paint tarps.  I have them already but I still need to get some rods so I will wait until next year to put them up.


I still need to get a table to put between the two chairs.  I found one at Goodwill but it might be too small.



I still have more ideas for the corner.  Right now I kept it simple.  I got the table from Goodwill.  It used to be black and white.  I like the blue and white theme much better.

 For now I kept the end tables pretty simple.  I have some candle holders that I painted to match the color scheme.  Next year I will add more details.  I like that they have the shelf underneath.  More room for decorating.


Now that I finally got this area done for this year it is time to get it decorated for Fall.  I probably won't start for a few weeks.  I think I will concentrate on getting the inside decorated this weekend.

  1. Looks very nice, I like the blues and greens mixed together. I wouldn't have thought of mixing those 2 colors.

  9. Oh, Mercy! How I'd give anything to sit on this pretty porch! My porch right now is soaked in heavy, heaving, oppressing humidity, so there's no going out there for a few more weeks. Everything you've chosen is so light and airy looking. Especially the color scheme!
    Found you through Hymns and Verses, and so glad I did.
