This year I am determined to make our porch a pleasant place where even Brandon, who hates spiders more than me I think, will want to spend some time.
I started on my little project today by paying Lowes a visit. Someone please explain to me why people think it's appropriate to bring their dogs there??? I bought some really pretty spray paint for some rocking chairs I recently acquired and lots of plants. I had no idea how expensive plants are! Thankfully, we've been saving a Lowes gift card since getting it for a wedding gift.
This afternoon I've been busy sweeping, planting, and destroying spider webs. There's progress being made.
I didn't think our porch looked that bad, but apparently two little birdies though it looked deserted enough to build nests in our rafters.
I believe I heard quite a bit of tiny little chirp, chirp, chirps coming from these nest so I suppose they'll be our neighbors for a while. Maybe they'll eat all the spiders :o)
I've noticed the dogs at Lowe's! One lady had her dog sitting in the child seat of the cart and kept SPANKING it for standing up. *sigh* What a fruit loop!
ReplyDeleteLove the repurposed cans for the flowers! When we lived in an apartment in Fayetteville, getting some adirondack chairs and putting some flowers out on our porch drew us out there! I hope you enjoy your space <3
Very Cool!
