hey everyone! i've been moving things around and "nesting" on our porch lately. can't let the finches have totally run of the house! thought i would show you a bit of what we love about our country home. (minus the mosquitoes!)
maybe some citronella tea-lights would be in order per my last remark! this little wire caddy already had tiny pots lining it. so i added old glass insulators and tiny candles to provide a "glowing" accent!
porch perfect - long view {below}
& a short one featuring my favorite pair of aqua/white rockers. *sigh* love 'em...
i fancy this plant {below}. & of course the rusty pedal car...that goes without saying! (and yes...it is different than the one i showed a few posts ago @ the hollow...now you know why i had to part with that one!)
naps are good. and i like to take them on the settee {below} with my old faded red ticking. nothing like a cap-nap with the birds signing around you. even the scolding i get from the mama finch sounds wonderful!
snuggle into my vintage grain sack with original period stencil.
a castoff rescued from the dump {below}. that locker unit was the highlight of my day! worth the hike thru the muck to get it!
he's been hanging out for a LONG time {below}...
the fascination with powdery white antlers continues...mixed with starfish and aqua floats {below}.
a chair with an old burlap grainsack "runner" {below}. it's all about texture!
a little bit of whimsy...
and another "light"hearted touch...old tonka tires turned candle-holders.
paying homage to my nebraska rummage sale find...the victorian plantstand stately showcases my little windmill...tonka tire candle-holders + other nilly willy accents {below}.
lovely little iron implements gather below brilliant green/eggplant leaves.
now i'd like to think i am the queen of the house...but this little gal {below} stands near our entry. and she seems to have the bigger tiara of the two of us! i am perfectly happy residing as reigning princess for the time being. for now she is the queen of everything!
thank you so much for popping by my porch today! i think it is just the perfect place to hang out! birds, mosquitoes plus queenies alike!
make it a great day!
