careally has needed some decor help!
i bought a white wicker couch, coffee table and two chairs at a yard sale last year for 45 dollars! it has sat on the front porch ever since the concrete was poured, but with our off white windows and trim, the white stuck out like a sore thumb!

so. . .i bought some fun green spray paint and got to work!
i also painted two white nightstands that my buddy gave me, cherry red. i added some knobs that i had left over from another project, and voila! i now love the left side of our porch!
next. . . .work on the right side of it!
i love this wreath. we've had it since we got married. it was once the "old house" colors, but since we moved, i've began to add more "color" to it!!!
my little man waiting to escape the torture of mommy's picture taking!
my cutsy anthropology like knobs on my free nightstands. . . just the cost of 2 cans of cherry red spray paint!!!!

see my cute polka-dotted bucket? i bought that at edie's yard sale, as well as the one above sitting on the "foot rest".
both of them were one dollar! all i did was add a little turquoise paint to both! i love my polka-dotted one! here was the before pic of it!
my other chair wasn't quiet finished when i HAD to take a picture, since i hadn't blogged in days! it's out here now!
i love it. . . .it makes me smile when i pull up the driveway or look out the living room windows or sit out here and blog!!!
happy weekend!

I love your decorating style. Maybe, just maybe you should help those of us who are handicapped in this department. With all your creativity, you could get paid to do it! I love the photo updates of your decorations and hope to work toward something similar.
It all turned out great! I am loving the knobs!!!
It looks so fun I just love the green you found for the furniture.
You are so brave....I would never have painted it that color....but it looks sooooo good....and it's so you!
I LOVE those colors!
I absolutely love it! I have never been a fan of wicker furniture, until now! $45 for a set! what a deal. Lucky you. The whole porch looks amazing. If only it wasn't already too hot here in Alabama!
I love the bright happy colors! Our little apt. deck is way to small to do something this neat, but a girl can dream!

Love it. The colors are wonderful!
Just stumbled upon your blog & love this furniture redo! Where did you get those pillows?? They are fantastic!
I love the color you used on the wicker! How many cans did it take you? I have that on my to do list!
What COOL colors...I have seen that neat green color and have been trying to find something that I could use it on. Your porch looks sooooo HAPPY!
Blessings,
Linda
that looks fantastic! i love how all the colors you picked work together and are bold without being way too in your face. it looks fantastic! and red is supposed to be great to have on or by your front door. :)
love, love, love, love.....:)
Beautiful! I am redoing my wicker chairs on my front porch soon. They were white when they were handed down to us. We painted them chocolate brown, but after a few winters they are needing redone. So I am going bold this time! We have lime green in our backyard so I am going with an accent to that, and will tie the two together. Can't wait! And this just gave me some motivation. Great job!
Your porch looks great!! I just have to say I have bought the exact green spray paint & I am obsessed with it..I've been painting everything green!I have'nt revealed any of my projects yet that i've used it on..
Great Job!

Oh what a great DIY project. You are one clever and crafty girl.
I just finished a project that took 23 years to complete.
Come take a peek.
Oh my gosh.......LOVE it!!!!!!
I love everything about it....would not change a thing!!
The green is awesome!!!
LOVE IT! My husband bought me to wicker rockers from an antique store for mothers day. Maybe they are calling for some green spray paint!:)
OH how I just heart everything about your project!!! Beautiful!
I love it it's beautiful!
Oh how I miss my old porch at my first home. :(
I jumped over here from tatertots and jello, and I'm so glad I did. What a gorgeous porch - I love the color and texture! Gorgeous! It screams summer fun :)
That's JUST what I need for my front porch! Thanks for the inspiration!
pure awesome!
I love your fun use of colors and how the pillows pull it all together.
Love your wicker! Ill be keeping an eye out for some wicker of my own at the next yardsale. Thanks for the idea.
I think I should come over and have tea on your front porch. I really do.
I am so inspired!! I refinished some cheapo furniture that I bought at a thrift store a few months ago (http://msgotitalltogether.blogspot.com/2010/06/porch-furniture-on-cheap.html), and NEVER made the or decorated out there. I am going to do it TODAY! Can't wait!
