I vowed to myself and to the rest of the world that I would complete more personal projects this year. Many on the list are outdoor related. The unfortunate thing for me is that Mother Nature has had a different plan. Her attempt at weekly rains, some of them with absolute fury, has all but squashed outdoor/spring accomplishments. Between the cold season and rainy spring, I did get one big item on my "to do" list done. Attaching the screens and shutters on my back deck. I am so glad I did. The weather has been beastly and it really helped protect my furniture from the elements.
I need a few more to find to fill a couple spots, but over all, this porch project is pointed in the right directions. I have gaps between doors & screens, but I never intended for it to be completely enclosed...it is a porch and the airflow is very important. I will check #9 off my list!
Being practical is important when you don't have a great deal of living space, so function out-weighs fancy! I use the space for building furniture & cornices and such. I mix my concrete there along with having my breakfast al fresco. The photo shows you the enclosed area. I still have work to do on the upholstered chairs and table on the opposite side of the space. Looks like I need to reorganize the mustard colored, glass pane cabinet with all my gardening bits & pieces. That darned snow ball effect . . . one thing leads to another!
This list is not going to complete itself, so I just keep pecking at it, bit by bit. Life does get in the way of my progress. I try not to pressure myself too much, there is supposed to be a little pleasure in the journey too!
