My Summer Veranda

Hello everyone,

    We had our fist summery day today and I was happy to be able to enjoy eating out on the veranda again.Yesterday,I spent some time getting it ready for the season as we store all the wicker and the iron bed etc. in the barn for the winter.

I still need to do some little finishing touches to it but this is what it looks like for now.We put the shutters up to block some of the summer sun and also the wind. We used to have a big tree that shaded this end but it had to come down a few years ago.

  If I am not out in the garden this is where you will likely find me.This porch is screened in and even on a warm rainy day I love to relax out here. This is also where we eat almost all of our meals.

The summery linens.

The Apricot Beauty tulips are blooming now.

I would like to stain the floors ivory but for practical purposes they a dark taupe.In the evening it is nice to relax on the bed with a good book.

I hope you enjoyed a peek at our veranda -well,half of it anyway. I will show you the rest of it later.

I am joining My Romantic Home today for Show and Tell.

Also joining French Country Cottage for Feathered Nest Friday.

Thank you for visiting,

Carolyn
