porches

i love having a front porch. our first house had a porch.
the house we moved from had wonderful front and back porches.
we enjoy sitting there to do things like...drink coffee...watch
the sunrise...play games...have conversations with family and friends...swing...etc...
i want a cozy porch that just feels like an extention to the outdoors from in.

so when i see a porch like this one online:

or this one:

i ask myself what can i do to make it look finished?

believe me i know my porch has potential...but
somehow it is lack~luster.


it's got good bones...like great millwork.



we even have a beautiful live accoutremont. well not just one.


i have purchased several antiques to warm it up but still...
i feel like it is lacking...


i need some ideas...some new perspective...i need inspiration.
