Our front porch is one of our favorite places. I love to sit out there with a glass of wine in the evenings, coffee in the mornings or my favorite is during a rainstorm. But since we bought the house slowly over time the rust has begun to come through, the paint has chipped, and the steps started falling apart. Fixing up the porch has been a project on my list for over a year now that kept getting pushed aside. However I couldn't tolerate it any longer. Earlier this Spring we fixed the steps and with my first full day of Summer Break I began working on the porch. Of course it was the hottest week of the year and I spent three days outside in it but the porch face lift is finally complete. I am ready to enjoy the spruced up porch all Summer long!
