Someplace to sit and relax


I painted my furniture this year my favorite turquoise blue it's such a crisp happy color. I love to sit here in the garden and watch the birds and butterflies.

My new Sun Porch


Beautiful soft yellow walls airy white sheers frame the sun porch. The daybed is a yard sale find for $10 the pillows I made well there are the 4 green ones I did buy at the dollar store. I have almost every color chenille bedspread I can put my hands on. Here I used a white one and a pink one folded at the bottom. I did just find a beautiful turquoise blue one which I have on the bench folded with turquoise baskets under for magazines and sewing projects that I can work on while relaxing on the daybed. Everything in the sun porch is about nature and the gardens from the flower material I used on the pillows to all my little birds and some pictures of roses from my friend Irena's gardens. I love shabby chic decor so my goal was to use soft pastels and vintage finds. I painted all the furniture white to give this room a soft Victorian feel. Oh no men allowed! They have their man caves I have my Shabby Chic Bright Sun Porch!
