Just a Swingin' on the Porch

I LOVE PORCHES
Second verse, same as the first

Earlier, I shared gorgeous porches that were featured in one of my favorite magazines, Southern Living magazine.  Today I will feature some of the swings that make porch living absolutely fantastic!

Notice all the comfy pillows too!

Extra long custom made swing...invites napping too!

Notice the brick floor...love the mantle!
Adding the perfect rug...
Screened in comfort...
Swings...a must have on a porch!  I'm toying with the idea of adding a swinging bed to our porch!  Now to get the hubby liking that idea too!

See ya down the junkin' road!

Hi Jan,
Love the porch swings. Wish I had a porch to hang one. I am thinking about under the deck though. Of course here in our area having the area screened in surely makes life much more pleasurable.

I've missed the blog world. But I miss seeing you and "your friend". Need to do some beach talking.

Joyfully,
Elizabeth Ann

I love porch swings too. Living on a gravel road and all the dust keeps me from enjoying one, but I felt relaxed just looking at the ones in these pictures!

Ever since watching The Waltons as a child, I have been envious of porches. We don't really do porches in the UK - I guess it's the weather.
Lovely inspiration - thank you !

The front of my house doesnt have a space large enough to call a porch exactly, but I do want to pimp my front door and add some bench and plantings. Thanks for the inspiration :)

The first and third porches are my favorites. I love porches and can't wait to get my porch furniture out. Love your blog!
