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!

Porch Love

I LOVE PORCHES!

I think my love of porches goes waaaaay back to early childhood with time spent at my grandparents' house!  Days always began on the front porch in the swing reading the daily comic page!  The back porch was reserved for work related activities! Early nighttime was spent on the screened in side porch! And the wonderful times we shared...so many wonderful memories!

So today I will share with you a few favorite porches that are featured in the Southern Living magazine! 

( I understand the reason for painting a porch ceiling blue is to help keep the insects away! 
Whatever the reason it is very pretty! )

Gorgeous, aren't they all?  So hard to pick just one favorite!!
Do you have a porch?  Have you gotten it ready for the season?  We have had soooo much pollen that it has been difficult to work outside!  The hubby and I have started the work needed to ready the porch for the spring and summer season! ( between sneezes...aaah-chooo!)

See ya down the junkin' road!!
