<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> By bringing inside style outside, they prepared a pretty porch perfect for warm weather get togethers. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPy8jSxuvAiKQYsoaUf7zsP8SFq8LdFDWXXRra1AnWpwxp6HSpM1oFuTClCKZv-hwR17eU215KZTfDg3vcPxdQ4k4EX6OFAcH_lKY-V1CVjFJHW1PED1XEVrMHsmyuro7Un4MRoLf-qiI/s640/A-Pretty-Front-Porch-Makeovers-For-Summer-2013.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Fresh paint, bold fabrics, soft rugs, and furniture that's easy to arrange and rearrange make this L-shape porch a great space for parties and family gatherings. For flexibility, select lightweight furnishings that would work just as well inside the house. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjyrWeSSy0oVROYvTX7Wd9d_i3CElB0o2tzLHW9eNKGlis86RiLnByUUIayAdUv2KP9RQ_q1hbsFegr6DHv6I-CPRIGSB1kcaBfQ4NgCk0Wh1Yjl-8GD9qtTklvoRTNf4u_qPMQOZJfkY/s640/A-Pretty-Front-Porch-Makeovers-For-Summer-2013-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A fabric that contained a touch of the house's brick hue along with citrus green, gray, pink, and terra-cotta inspired the porch's color palette. Gray served as the dominant color for the floor and curtains, with citrus-green accents. The fresh palette splashes dashes of fun onto throw pillows. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiv-tPeuS3nqYqKTNtqokGbQlNCk0hIC5oiwz-PggL4ddCy9IFVgALS6ohsxukBbhIvdImxDLTQr0f0VMI_JHgdRPcrhmYKpILof7K-XhBn4fP4HLc3tC8n3YPnxw3yAakSEiMQ38OrX8/s640/A-Pretty-Front-Porch-Makeovers-For-Summer-2013-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Create a look-at-me door with oversize zinc house numbers bold enough to be seen from the street. Window film featuring bold circles adds privacy to the door and obscures a direct view into the living and dining rooms. A coat of spunky citrus-green paint freshens the entry. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTSaAKkrTKQ9P3pOVCTBU_37rl5qsqu_L06CzvU2_S8JDHYDXOL7ZGjtZ4LCgOfF0mRfp3sJIvGvXGE20ncZnL8GcxKvuO7vlDoqddhNqRY7DbOz6Q2horY64ugKzJZ0bpCC9KU_SRzpE/s640/A-Pretty-Front-Porch-Makeovers-For-Summer-2013-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A narrow desk on casters rests against one wall and is used as a sideboard on most days. Painted citrus green, this desk adds personality and functionality to the porch. Roll it in front of the bench and it offers fine dining for two. Pull up the chairs and stools spread around the porch, and it's party time. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwzticbhOAzSBtMKFuux13q9Wqc8bhECgsqLa5rcrDicclFDSvK05SgjVSPalTUpMK2g0XBrIw0BKbdrQSgQzq3IQjOWR8II8uJyZPVz01XblzvSB131E8Uyi7ApjuV4sUvYb82iVL1uE/s640/A-Pretty-Front-Porch-Makeovers-For-Summer-2013-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Sections of tree trunk serve as handy side tables or stools and add a rustic touch to the outside room. Four swivel casters on the bottom of each log make them easy to move. Add cushions for seating comfort. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq61EqRhVLNOmi8IBZKZLU3omWhUlH9KmHCeC62nZDLCnYFu9uxLVHtpHxixIWpSwfU5bTaoIz4YQUjiVtwGlYB3jUP5fPwnTVk_oi19Vskc4asdmJrWB-fIEG-EfFUb557xWVok4ZTqo/s640/A-Pretty-Front-Porch-Makeovers-For-Summer-2013-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Add a swinging bench to the side area of the porch for a more private gathering space. For durability, use exterior primers and paints on furniture -- porch-and-floor enamel is a dependable option. Make curtains and pillows from indoor/outdoor fabrics to prevent wear and weathering. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div>

Chic Porch Room Summer 2013 Decorating Ideas

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">See how a design savvy couple repurposed an old shed on their upstate New York vacation property into a relaxing porch space perfect for escaping the city and for entertaining friends. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkFZujV5IiBsh_OYNGQf9GssysAH2DTZ5jaRcPN4c9mRPF6uXlB_PG3xxz7lif7nrgqumaINbJG5Q_LK6Et1nwZDUdnZC50M8mAVlLdwJU2J34Pgg78SupjJe6zb2eqgGerGbTnGNhWVg/s640/Chic-Porch-Room-Summer-2013-Decorating-Ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">With some DIY and design smarts, a crumbling early 1900s shed was converted into an airy living space to entertain guests. The roof of the shed was raised to give the 22x13-foot structure a bit of breathing room and was then re-covered with leftover shingles. Sustainable solutions were used, such as reusing furniture already in their collection and repainting vintage shutters. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivYOrNM1Hx4OXvKEDmsH6Nr7ICIiAvTNrIQq0zeTdRkdY4IM-MW-sX-cfmJBWGE40r0qP7c3SlNVuRHNPszQz8AFfs_ZMeo-pwAq8buj4hiz-S637zP1iJxy1RYt97kXKw7VZNR3UFw1A/s640/Chic-Porch-Room-Summer-2013-Decorating-Ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">These adorable outside shutters added a personal touch that also perked up the facade. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYd58wpgQcMzQu7rJ5MAVXNPJtLKR6r9Z_hrL2LnQmOQWgLkCs8_95887hzFKesybpHR5e3dUaV7bSYF4NgNv2PdOqqDwCieAOfz2Jbv-tIV8Vabh_if7iCZdvkwm6i0JFCL-_3RAwgSE/s640/Chic-Porch-Room-Summer-2013-Decorating-Ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The bright colors and patterns in the design create a room full of whimsy while still being in-line with the traditional New England summer cottage look of the main building. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio0qMHXURlG-sgtjEWFf32HlGeYpAkztXoHsOaCad8UoDZpqxiWVwckCsHrkZEO1C2Bq0aM6BptNLwnji7_nuDXUNBVY40_UCXMPu__dx7SreU2fZd6QI1AuXDzfETS2hv2XAUSD8RObY/s640/Chic-Porch-Room-Summer-2013-Decorating-Ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Revamped yard sale finds create a citrus sorbet color palette of seating.

A playful multicolor print using hand block stamps from India and fabric paint is simple and inexpensive on these white drapery panels. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjrpIMCnKs473bRwIXxRv6ZHQ9bD1HPi9eQqVdv2eIkk9VknV7rEc2ECN0cbySeNuN4kQvk7JQ6WMVuNIsRc-J9JYvTfh-t4A_1l6qjX0E-xR2047vRLfCtWfCAL_b5Pk4xpMJjAN6Fgo/s640/Chic-Porch-Room-Summer-2013-Decorating-Ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Space for napping was a must-have for the homeowners, so a daybed coated in outdoor paint was added to the space. A cute pair of chairs and a table make an ideal spot for morning coffee rituals. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8hiFcge8WQPGu7MMmLyzvoPPOHeKEiIm95WmBo9HfEGIFshBfd24jssd5J2oX5Lr6Zg51SDhyphenhyphenAJUPjk0Domof7Weq4kVrGb4ErTJu3JDb_vNmdwRhFGwQrNSs_q9yCG3A4t-GsliCSu4/s640/Chic-Porch-Room-Summer-2013-Decorating-Ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The throw pillow collection was approached like a garden plot. There are no rules against planting alliums alongside zinnias, so why shy away from mixing patterns in a summer porch? Tons of color brightened up the space. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdwvBn4iRICV7szKCFcZ-7JYUjvzmYWEN9kDtzSEfwW1Gl-qp8P81jicpm8Bv7EyR3vndT2ubQ2ErBkneauslt_4M_B9jnOs4TT_w5w28n4Gz1yd96pu8LhRTgxYRCTMTuEDpUGTjacbU/s640/Chic-Porch-Room-Summer-2013-Decorating-Ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The decision not to insulate the structure left the summertime retreat with exposed studwork that's put to good use displaying books and collectibles. Sturdy studs become built-in shelving and a pretty collection transforms an otherwise rustic finish into a focal point. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFGndXQlTUoaV_dsHr1CdacGTDVj2DzBdt0iKgZoyOfPZS7wHOwJq_gTj1xTKLzUvz5YMcahmY6gtDi6KxglMSNGDxNhKIRNxMTPKFoRqiUxoQepwqn5_My1H3XovhN0YQKW2NQ4KFkmE/s640/Chic-Porch-Room-Summer-2013-Decorating-Ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Decor is more dramatic repeated by the dozen. Bargain lanterns were used to create special mood lighting and to add color. The lighting gives off a magical glow at night. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div>
