In the Spring we tackled the screened in porch that is attached to our house. It is screened on 3 sides and has some type of flagstone(?) floor. This shows how the previous owners left it:
We did the following this spring:
- Taber sealed the stone floor
- We sanded and painted the wrought iron that goes around the perimeter
- We put down an outdoor rug (from Bed Bath and Beyond)
- We purchased a patio set (love seat, 2 chairs, and coffee table) for the room
- Added a couple of potted plants and some hanging baskets of flowers (the flowers in the baskets died, unfortunately)
Here's how it turned out...
