But beautiful all the same. <br />2.) reminds me of the porch on our little house thet I grew up in...I've a memory of a kiss stolen on a porch much like that one. {wink} <br />3.) Makes me think as I step off this porch I could travel by foot to a local market,baker, beauty salon, or dress shop and chat with close friends along the way! <br />4.) my favorite. Very Country-fied! <br />I like it because it is secluded and I could drink a nice glass of ICE Tea and enjoy a quaint country view~ <br /><br />Thanks for all the eye candy! <br />PatPatricia @ 9th and Denverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786692442689958889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914944137112141462.post-88787963061632874082012-03-20T16:01:46.363+00:002012-03-20T16:01:46.363+00:00Im extremely excited for the outcome.Im extremely excited for the outcome.phoenix painterhttp://phoenixpaintinganddrywall.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914944137112141462.post-47367317692853702022012-03-20T14:26:34.256+00:002012-03-20T14:26:34.256+00:00I'd start with the enormous and scale down fro...I'd start with the enormous and scale down from there. what a great presence it has.Mimihttp://www.firstcomeflowers.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914944137112141462.post-87002601585173753682012-03-20T14:00:04.011+00:002012-03-20T14:00:04.011+00:00Gathering pictures to stir the imagination is the ...Gathering pictures to stir the imagination is the best first step. <br />But before the final decision, things to consider are <br /><br />1. Use- Do you need space for a bench? A place to set packages?<br /><br />2. Exposure- If the entrance is particularly exposed to nature's temper tantrums, you will want more enclosure.<br /><br />3. Lighting- You want everything to be as lovely at night as in the daylight<br /><br />4. Blend- What elements blur the line between architecture, interior and garden design. <br /><br />5.

Some of the original trim had to be replaced over the years and it is too difficult and expensive to reproduce.Sweet Posy Dreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915541210527642552noreply@blogger.com
