Living Room Furniture: Spring front porch part 3

Finally, finally, finally got the front porch done this morning. The pillows for the chairs arrived yesterday and I couldn't wait to get them on the porch. I started at 7:30 this morning getting the final touches done. Of course this will be only time that my porch will look like this. Where I live you get a lot of wind so if it is not weighted or strapped down it will blow away.

So here is what I did. This picture shows the ceiling painted. It used to be the same color as the house. I would have liked it to be a very light blue but I would have to get it approved by the HOA. Here is what the porch looked like before. It is dull and one of the cushions kept blowing off so I removed it for the winter.

Now here is the after.

Now for some close ups.

Here is the bench before I downsized it.

And the after

Now here is what it will look like until I change it out for Summer.

I wish that we had a screened in porch than I could leave everything out and not worry about it blowing away. The next project here will be replacing the ugly storm door. I tried not to get it in the pictures too much. It is getting replaced in the middle of April. I decided not to put a wreath up since last year I had a house finch make her nest in it. Once the new door is installed I can put my wreath up.

Have a great weekend everyone!!!!
