Glimpses From The Sunporch...
Thursday, June 28, 2012
Our sunporch is a work in progress. Originally a deck, it has evolved over the years into a screened porch, and finally into a sunporch. It is still being finished off, but is hard to get any work done as it is the most relaxing space...and we tend to take a lot of naps out here! It seemed like a good time to share some glimpses of the space, with the Fourth of July nearly here. We decorate with red, white, and blue and vintage Americana, out in this space year round! Thought you might enjoy seeing some of the vignettes, even though we are still under construction!
And we aren't the only ones who nap out here...
Thank you for all of your nice comments on my last post...I hope to stop by and visit soon...lots of summer fun has been going on around here lately!
Until next time...hope you have a wonderful weekend!

I only saw the crock with the flags in it on your FB page, but now it really does look like my porch! Same crock, wicker planter, wicker chair with cushions, scale -- I even have a Liberty beverages bottle with a flag!

It's beautiful but don't be giving me ideas to make our screen porch into a sunporch...very tempting!
ReplyDeleteYou have a nice BIG sunporch! I'll be over to take a nap too! Move over pups! Maybe the weather will cool off a little so one can enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWarmly,

so comfy and a perfect spot for napping. Love those little flags, I call them cemetery flags, great collection! thanks for linking up to the party!
ReplyDeleteWould I ever love a sun porch like that. I would do a lot of reading there.
ReplyDeleteLinda- I love all the things you have collected along the way. I had a marshmallow tin like that one at one time. Your sun porch is lovely. There is nothing like a great enclosed porch- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted a sunporch. Looks like yours is wonderful. Mimi

Be still my heart!!! You know I LOVE everything in your sunroom. The trucks, the games, the quilts, the barn...oh, my!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend Linda!
I just want to come over and plop myself down on those sofas or settees or whatever you call them. Love all your patriotic decor too.
ReplyDeleteWell, I can certainly see why everyone naps out there - it is so pretty and restful. Love that Black Beauty book - one of my favorite childhood stories. Ann
ReplyDeleteI love all of your bits and pieces you have on that great porch. I specially love the old trucks, the marshmallow tin and the bottle.

Hey Linda, while you're napping maybe I'll just sneak in and nab some of those cool things in your vignettes! What a great space!
ReplyDeleteJan
I'd nap out there! I'd live out there if you'd let me!
ReplyDeleteIt really is a wonderful space with so many special things.... and enjoyed by a lovely family too :)
I've always loved the idea of a porch just like in the Waltons (I loved that programme) with a swing seat... bliss :)
Have a great weekend

Oh Linda, I could shop your porch and be in seven heaven...you have all the things I love! Enjoy your weekend, Gail
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and festive. I love all the vintage goodies spread around but you probablly get tired of hearing that from me. You are just so talented in displaying everything it always inspires me.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to find your blog. I'm a fan of sun porches, afternoon naps, and vintage Americana. Thanks for sharing! Happy 4th of July! ~ sarah

Linda, love your sun porch. great decor. One day I will have a screened in sunroom. I just hate bugs and flys. creapy. Smiles, Susie
ReplyDeleteI can see why you love that room so! So cozy and sweet. I wish I could join you for a glass of iced tea and we could chat.

Hey sweet girl! :)
ReplyDeleteI inspire YOU?! You inspire ME! You have such a wonderful knack for putting things together and making them look cute! :) I LOVE your picture with the home sweet home in it!! I'm looking for things for my dining room that are farm house-y (SO not a word!) and I think I might copy that for above the shelf I'll be building on the wall across from the window seat wall. I'm such a glutton for punishment! lol I've been buying some ironstone to put up there too. :) I'll be excited to get it all done, but I have SO much more to do! I'm working on the wainscoting and still have a bunch of sewing and painting left to do. My carpal tunnel will only let me do so much painting at a time though...I'm taking a bit of a break. :)
Hope you're having a great weekend!
Love YOU much!
Missy :)
Oh dear Linda,
ReplyDeleteAll those beautiful patchwork carpets -they are so fantastic work of art, and I love them. Must be wonderful there on your sun porch- even in a little grey day, you can be comfortable in one of them around you, and then watching all your other great collection,sitting there- you can`t ask for more !
Hugs,Dorthe
So many pretty things! Your sunporch is already gorgeous. I love how big it is. My sunporch is much smaller but by far, my favorite space in the house.
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th of July
What a great place to relax!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great space...I would be napping out there too! Love all of the vintage treasures you've displayed.
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th to you and your family.

Happy 4th Linda. Stay cool!
