February Porch of the Month

Welcome to the first Porch of the Month ... we are visiting on the porch of Debra Oliver ...I'm sure many of you are familiar with Debra's blog "Common Ground" ... where she shares a lot of her enthusiasm for home decor and personal style tips ... her attention to detail and flawless style always blows me away! I'm going to let Debra herself guide us around and describe her wonderful porch to us all~

"Right off my kitchen sets the most fun little spot in my house; my sunporch.  It's dated and needs some sprucing up, but I love to decorate seasonally there.

 All my chippy garden things end up out there with my white wicker as a backdrop. Old quilts, trellises, bird cages; even a chippy picket fence gate with teeth marks!

 Weather permitting, I have my first cup of coffee there, as the kitties and I enjoy a morning ritual of bird watching. No matter what the weather or time of year, it's an inspiration every day."

How about them apples? I'm inspired, how about you? 

Thank you Debra for graciously allowing us to visit with you on your sunporch!

Don't forget next Monday's topic of Porch conversation:

"Romancing the Porch"

 What is it about the porch that says romance to you?

Is it an intimate corner for a private conversation?

An old fashioned swing?

A kiss goodnight on the doorstep?

What is the most romantic vision of a porch you can dream up?

A wrap-around deep in the sultry South?

A broken down fixer upper waiting for your hands?

A craftsman bungalow overlooking the Pacific Ocean?

 

See ya back on the porch !!
