Home Improvements

As summer started to settle in, we finally decided to finish the porch beautification project we’d started years ago. When we moved into our house it had a horrid enclosed porch. 

A few years ago we tore that down and had a nice one built. That we never used. I posted pictures of the new porch a few weeks ago, and you'll notice it's pretty unadorned. 

Inspired by our Chicago SociaBulls friends who show off their lovely outdoor living spaces at Yellow Brick Home and Two Pitties in theCity, we finally made our porch into a living space. We hung some flower baskets, installed some window boxes and filled them with more flowers, got cushions for the seating area, and scrubbed off the winter's grime. 

Lola and Franklin approve.
