Hey guys, well all I can say is...Ahhhh!!! Because I've been steadily busy with my Decorating Business, I've only been able to blog once - maybe twice a week and you know what - I really love slow blogging! It's nice to blog when I want and when Inspiration hits.
Well Spring is here and we're ready to get outside! However, our screened porch has been feeling a little dull lately and I'm thinking it's time for a mini re-fresh. Not a big one, just a few well chosen accessories for a fresher and more updated feel. And here's what got my wheels spinning the other day ;) This picture below from Pottery Barn...
Yes, these Awning Striped pillows from Pottery Barn in black are sure to add classic style to this neutral space. Here are a few pictures of our screened porch now...
When I decorated this space a few years ago, I wanted a neutral and calm getaway. Just a quiet place to relax and watch our kids and dogs play in our 1/2 acre wooded back yard. And I loved it at first, in fact I still love it!
But now I'm craving a little color as well as a classic design element and these striped pillows are sure to make a big impact without spending a lot of money. I also think they'll add a more sophisticated look to our brick colonial home.
Okay the pillows are ordered and I've placed a few new accessories on the garden rack behind the sofa. I'll also be adding a few more potted plants. Yay for Spring and the warmer weather!
I'll be back in a week or two with After pictures. I love changing the look of a space with simple throw pillows and a few well chosen accessories. In fact, mini makeovers like this are one of my favorite things!

Love the black and white and so glad you are adding some color for Spring....it will be a welcome retreat.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Karen! I agree, this space needs some color :)
DeleteCan't wait to see it Jane! It looks great now, but I know what you mean about needing some change sometimes!
