Early Summer on the Porch

Good morning my friends! I hope you all had a nice weekend and will have a beautiful week ahead. My front porch is greeting early summer, and YOU! Welcome! As you know, I love the  blue and orange combo. They are at opposite sides of the color wheel so a beautiful combination. I brought that combo outside to the "porch", in the wreath, the pots and the flowers.
 Looking over here to the right, I have a double hook with a hanging plant and a blue bird feeder that Joe made. It is fun to watch them eating  from the dining room window:)
 I keep my cranes in the garage in the winter and bring them out here in the spring. The bushes were cut back in HALF and have grown like weeds. After they finish blooming we will cut them back again and MOVE them to a better location. I want something smaller here.


 Impatiens are my go to out here since it faces north and gets no sun.
 In the urn I planted some begonias and they are doing GREAT! I also have plans to paint the urn. I am not into the black. I may add some gold to the details or just change the whole color.




I love layering a small rug and the doormat. I got the rug at Target last year and the mat at CVS!!!!


 I made the wreath 2 years ago but still like it here. I store my wreaths by hanging them on a hanger, covering them with a dry cleaner bag and hang them in a closet in the basement.

 I am surprised that the wrens have not tried to make a nest in the wreath this year. One year I had to move it to the side wall because we couldn't go in and out the door:)


 This bird house was a housewarming gift from my sister-in-law. I love it!

Thanks so much for your visit. I hope you all have a great day.
XO, Pinky

  2. Pinky,
    Gorgeous front porch!
    I love the hues in the wreath and the combination in your flora plantings!
    Your bushes have filled out quite nicely leading to the door!
    The blue & white collection with all the green is stunning!
    Great tips for storing wreaths between Seasons.

  3. I recently upgraded to quiet off road tires on my truck and haven't looked back since. Not only are they incredibly quiet compared to the standard tires, but they also provide better traction in wet and muddy conditions. I no longer have to worry about hydroplaning or losing control on slick roads. The added grip also makes it easy to get up and over any bumps or uneven terrain I encounter while off-roading. Plus, I'm able to take corners at higher speeds without having to worry about losing control. All in all, the quiet off-road tires have been a great investment and are definitely worth the money.

  4. I recently used the detailing service Dallas and was extremely happy with the results. They did a fantastic job cleaning and polishing my car; the attention to detail was incredible. They are knowledgeable and efficient, and the price was very reasonable. They paid attention to the smallest detail, and my car looks showroom new! I highly recommend this detailing service in Dallas to anyone looking for a professional, high-quality detailing service.
