Pink, Purple And The Front Porch

Front Porch Sitting

I just love a front porch. In fact I love all porches period. Since, I was a young girl, there has never been a better place for wiling away a summer afternoon. Friends, family and ice tea while swinging in the front porch swing. Or you could simply rock your troubles away in front porch rocking chairs. Fortunately, I am blessed to have two front porches. And the upstairs one recently got a facelift.

My View From Up In The Trees

While sitting high on the second story porch and listening to the cool breezes passing through the trees, I find my place of peace and tranquility.  Essentially, it’s the perfect spot for a simple Sunday afternoon.

Not only is the upstairs porch my special haven, but it also serves as a private retreat for houseguests. The spa colors are perfect for creating a vacation like atmosphere for visiting guests.

Recently, on a visit to my local Pier1, I happened upon a close-out sale on these scrumptious spa print cushions. No hesiation whatsoever. Unfortunately, the all to friendly squirrels from the trees had made themselves at home trying to bury nuts in the old cushions last fall. And so they were way over due for a change.
