Spring Fever hit a couple of weeks ago and I wanted to take our fall-ish porch and add a little bit of life to it!
It was time for some color!
Every now and then I will go check out the barn for any 'new' things I may can spot. There are so many old but really neat items there that I can spruce up and decorate the house with. It just fits perfectly with old house and the farm feel.
I have really been loving the chair idea with a plant in the seat..
Sooooo guess what I found out in the barn??
It was perfect and the cushion/seat had already been taken off.. this is exactly how I found it.
I cleaned it up a bit and then Mrs. Connie came over and we got started with the chicken wire.. she molded it and then started stapling to the underneath part of the chair.
|
Finished with the wire! |
I got out one of my favorite things --paints-- decided on a color and got to it!
Red is one of my favorite colors but we have a red door and I also wanted a color that would stand out.
|
Turquoise it is. |
|
We had a 4-legged helper too. |
|
Silly girl. |
|
I picked this up at home depot.. |
|
Shredded the edges for a not-so-perfect look.. |
|
Added soil and this beautiful Begonia plant for the completed look. |
|
I potted these when this fun porch project first started. |
|
I got these birdhouses from Mrs. Connie's inventory. |
|
And here is the completed look! |
|
Next project is for another wreath since the birdies around here have helped themselves to this one. |
What have been some of your Spring projects?

Oh my goodness! So pretty! The chair is so charming. Sure wish I had bought the rusted wheelbarrow.
I love the chair! I saw this idea too and it is on my list of future projects. I need to have another pinterest party to motivate myself!
