My Front Porch

Happy Monday!
It's FINISHED! I have been working on getting my front porch pretty for summer,
well yesterday I finally finished it!

**Go figure my camera charger is missing! So these pictures are taken from my cell phone**
Sorry guys for the bad quality


Take a look


{My Front Porch}

Flowers are Petunias, Impatiens, Double Impatients, & something else LOL I can't remember
I found all the pots from my local Goodwill for $1-2 each.
The yellow pot came with the flower.
Wreath I made from crepe paper and felt.

FYI: That hanging basket was on clearance for $5 at Lowes
SCORE! originally $25
&
USA sign hanging in the window bought at Dollar Tree for $1

Pinwheels: Pink one is from the Dollar Tree
& the red white & blue one is from the dollar isle at Target.




{Watering Can & Planter Stand}

Found the watering can on Saturday at a Yard Sale for $2
That's the $3 plant stand from Goodwill I mentioned on Tuesday.
And that's the $.50 pot I recovered with the $2 fabric from Goodwill.


So what ya think??
I love how my porch looks, I was so happy when the neighbor next door complimented me on how good it looks!
That totally made my day!
:)

What projects or crafts do you have planned for this week?

  1. Everything is so cute! I especially like your flower pots!

    Your plant stand is cute, but is it a three tiered pie holder? Just curious. :0)

  6. So sweet girl, I love it. Flowers make me happy, and I've been so lazy this summer. My garden is SCARY, but I will start working on it soon.

    Great deals on everything too. I love Lowes clearance section, Home Depot doesn't do that, he he.

    Hugs, Bella :)
