I decided to use lots of color this year. Here are some close ups of the crate area.
I left it simple on the bistro table. No table setting this time.
Here is how the porch looks when you first walk up to it.
I haven't decided what I want to do with the door area yet. Right now I want to concentrate on the dining room since we finally sold the old living room furniture today. I also want to get out into the front yard today and do some cleaning up since all the snow is gone in the front. My iris's are starting to come up plus most of the other flowers.

Love your decorating for spring. Still 2 feet of snow on the ground & it has been snowing all day. Thanks for bringing a little color into my grey life
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about all the snow. My backyard still has lots of snow since it faces the North. I am glad that I could cheer you up a bit.
DeleteGreat job! Looks so welcoming!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I will probably change a few things later this month. I was just itching to get outdoors today!
DeleteLove all the color on your front porch with your spring decorating! I need to do mine, too....I have the spring wreath on the front door, but that's about it. Congratulations on selling the living room furniture!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Lanita
Thank you. I still need to decorate my door. I was glad to get rid of the furniture even though we had to take a much lower price.
DeleteYour Spring porch is gorgeous! Love all of the color and your special touches!

How warm and inviting the porch is. I would love to sit and read here.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I have never got to enjoy my front porch very much as the next door neighbors have children and it seems that all the other children in the neighborhood come down and play at their house. I tried once but it was just too noisy. I do get to enjoy my back porch and deck more.
DeleteLovely front porch Jody, I love the bright colors of the flowers and the birdhouses are wonderful, cute with the faucet!!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you find such cute accessories?
Thanks for the linkback this week and for visiting!!! Have a great week!

Thank you. I like to shop at Hobby Lobby, Home Goods, Tuesday Morning and Pier 1. Sometimes I get lucky at Goodwill but not all that often.
DeleteBeautiful porch! Makes you want to sit and sip on a glass of iced tea! Love your rug,with all the beautiful colors!
ReplyDeleteWould you share where you purchased it! Blessings to you!
Thank you. I bought the rug at Wal-Mart last year. It works great for Spring and Summer. I was looking for something with blue and orange and there it was. I also bought the pillows this year there too.
DeleteI love all the decorative details that you've put together. Pretty.
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a great day!
DeleteWelcome to SPRING.....FINALLY! Beautiful porch, a nice warm day and a glass of tea and I know where I would be! Great Job
ReplyDeleteThank you Pam. I think I will be on the porch this weekend!
DeleteIt is so inviting. I love it! I am so glad Spring is here finally. I am jealous you have such a big front porch. We live in an apartment and have a pretty big patio. Maybe I need to live it up a bit. Thanks for sharing at #HomeMattersParty
ReplyDeleteThank you. This is the first house we have had with a large front porch. All the others were just stoops. We got lucky with this house. It is a walk out so we have a covered deck and a patio beneath in the back. I have a hard time trying to decorate all of them. Have a wonderful weekend!
DeleteYour porch looks so inviting! I really have enjoyed visiting you today and if you dont already, I encourage you to visit many Pink participates. Thank you and enjoy a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you and I hope you have a great weekend too!
DeleteJody,
ReplyDeleteNot only is your front porch beautiful. . .welcoming. . .but also inspiring!!!
Enjoy the warmer weather that this Spring Season brings!!!
Fondly,
Pat
Thank you Pat. I am so ready for warm weather and eating outdoors. Have a great week!
DeleteThose peaks of iris give hope!! I would love to send down and cuddle under that blanket on the porch!
ReplyDeleteMost of my flowers in the front yard are starting to come up and the trees are budding out. Can't wait to start gardening again. Have a wonderful week!
DeleteLet me just say Yay! for spring. I so have cabin fever and your porch just put a smile on my face. Well done and so inviting!
ReplyDeleteI am glad that I cheered you up. We are going to have a few days in the 40's later this week. I just hope it doesn't snow. Have a great day!
DeleteVery warm and welcoming! Love the color. I have had fun Spring-a-fying my front porch as well. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Thank you Jann. I saw your post on the rain boots and I have to say that I love how you changed them. I have always thought about finding some at the thrift store and painting them myself . I love that color of blue so springy. Have a wonderful day!
DeleteThis porch is so bright and happy, I would never want to leave!
