There's simply nothing more refreshing than an early morning cup of coffee on the porch.  A light breeze carries the sound of the birds as they welcome the new day, and morning dew sparkles in the sun.  The porch is the perfect place to contemplate the upcoming activities of the day.  Maybe you enjoy reading devotions or writing in your journal in the quiet moments found here.

​Creating a place that is authentic to who you are and how you live your life should be the goal as you design your living spaces.  Think first of how you use the space:  do you read or watch tv there?  Is it a space where you like to eat meals or sit and visit with friends?  Be intentional about how you set up your porch so you maximize it's use and it makes sense for the way you move throughout your day.  This upcoming week on the blog, I will cover all the elements of a great porch from the ground up.  For today, I am sharing another design board to whet your appetite and help you to zero in on your own personal style.  I will post links to all the items shown on the board so you can quickly find them online.  I hope you find some inspiration this week as we continue on in our pursuit of the perfect porch.
