Slowing down and just sitting on the porch..... a real luxury in the fast paced world of today.
I design porches with comfortable seating and durable fabrics.
I am a serious porch lover. Sitting on the porch..sleeping on the porch entertaining on the porch (or making a temporary porch office)... Often I add an electric fireplace that looks like a wood burning stove for wintering on a porch............and a fan for the summer and springtime on a porch.

the big question is "To screen or not to screen" .If you use the charcoal grey color you visibility is still very good. Screening makes it more private and protects against the bug.
NOTE: Do not use the so called screen sold to keep bug out...because it keeps out the BREEZE... and fresh air.
Lovely... thank you for the ideas. Now to embellish my front porch! ;)

Jane.....I would live on any of those gorgeous porches! I vote for screens.....to keep those bugs out!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, Jane. Yours was the first blog I ever followed and these sweet pictures reminded me why! :) We have a screened in porch and I really need to add some décor. It's just so relaxing out there, I can't get motivated to get off the couch to do anything, but be!
