The Porch Re-Do

A couple of weeks ago, I decided to give our front porch a makeover. It took about a day to paint the floor, make a trip to Hobby Lobby, and pull together a few odds and ends. Since finishing it, we've all been spending a lot of time sitting out and enjoying the mild weather. Sophi especially enjoys the new porch swing (thank you, Carig's List - $10!).

cheap wall art idea . . .

Go the the scrapbooking store and buy some artistic paper (I paid $.50/ sheet) and pop it into a cheap frame. Voila!
