Patio Sitting Area

Jackie Hill August 28, 2016 0 Comments

Good Afternoon! I have been showing bits and pieces of the back yard before the summer is over. I decorated the Patio months ago, and we have been enjoying it so much this summer. It is bright and colorful, and most of all comfortable. Today I am showing the sitting area. This is where I go to most when I am on the patio. It is where I sit and have a drink and watch the puppies play in the yard....

Hi there, how are you? I have been better. I am frustrated with a situation that feels out of my control. I am not sure what to do, and what my choices are. I am not sure how I got here, or where this will take me. Things have to get better, and some things have to change. Sorry to ramble, I just need to get it out. So... Lets look at another pretty vignette and enjoy a few simple things in life...

Hi There! I am so glad you dropped by! I was sitting in the living room, watching TV. Losing brain cells, I'm sure.

This is the top of a little bookcase I have had for years. It sits between the TV armoire and the window. The...

Hi There! I am so glad you're here. I have been craving some traditional decor lately. So, I am switching up some of my porch furniture with "new" paint colors. Traditional, neutral paint colors. Crazy, right? This time around, I did my take on a English Garden front porch. Dark Traditional colors for the furniture and pink Petunia flowers in the pots. This is my wicker table, that I pulled out...

Hi There! In my last post, I showed some photos from last year- 2015. A cute little spot by our garage. Nothing special, but I do decorate it a little for the summer. You can see how it looked in 2014, and 2015. I did the work, so I may as well show it off right? We found this plant stand behind the garage when we moved in. Old, rusted, and missing some parts. I put it together with the...
