I decided that I needed a sewing break this afternoon and tackled the porch. It's been a bit barren looking and needed some touches of color. The pot used to have some colorful flowers in it, but they died last July. Needless to say, I've been a bit slow to replace them. It also turned out that I put the wrong plants together. Some wanted drought and others wanted the rainforest. It was fated to go badly. So they went out and the standard never-fail geraniums went in.I found the cute little metal chairs from Costco, the tiny mosaic table
from Bed, Bath & Beyond, the chair cushions from Lowe's, and the
plants from Home Depot.
And just in case you thought that maybe the porch wasn't so bad before, here's what it looked like earlier today. (The table and chairs have only been there for the last month ... it was really sparse looking before that!)
