We LOVE Our New....

screened porch and deck! We spend all our time out here and my indoor gal is now a bona fide outside girl. A few notes:
I'm going for an eclectic look and I couldn't pass up this round wrought iron table. My parents purchased it in the 1970's, so I've eaten many a meal at this table. I do plan to give it a shiny new coat of black spray paint this summer.
We must wait until next summer to stain and/or paint the pressure-treated lumber, because it will take several months to dry. I'm thinking about staining the decking the color of our house. Any suggestions?

I'm thinking perennials in the landscaping. The less upkeep the better.

Your new deck and screened in porch look FABULOUS. What a great place to spend your summer days and nights.

Love the pictures of the girls in your previous posts. Sure does look and sound like Miss Jillian is having a wonderful summer.

Kisses for both the girls. Miss you all.
Love Cynthia and Taylor
