| We live in our sunroom year round! |
 |
| When we moved here this was just a covered patio. We looked at windows and different options to convert it to a sunroom. It is a 16x16, so six sets of French doors was perfect! They can be opened and it feels just like you are outside. |
 |
| I love fans and I have two of them going almost all the time. |
 |
| Two of the walls are brick. I still haven't decided if I will paint or do something else with them. For now, I like them the way they are. |
 |
| This is a chandy that I fluffed up and hung on a standing birdcage hanger. |
 |
| This old armoire that is in the sunroom houses alot of my vintage quilts. The one on display now, belonged to my grandmother. |
 |
| A comfy old wicker chair and ottoman. |
 |
| I change the covers on my couch all the time. The cats are inside alot and we eat out here, you get the picture! I find beautiful king size spreads at yard sales and that is what I cover my furniture with. The sheet on the back of the sofa has beautiful crocheted roses on it. I have lots of pillows around to lay back and relax on. |
 |
| I made a shabby flag to hang on the french door over the sofa. And I also made a Zia sun (dream,catcher?) The Zia sun is the New Mexico flag symbol. |
 |
| Here is a close up. For those of you that are facebook friends, I did a complete post about the history of the Zia symbol.. Please go over and read it.. very interesting! |
 |
| I love decorating with old doors! |
 |
| There is always a cat or two asleep in the sunroom! |
 |
| This is the entrance from the family room into the sun room. Beyond this set of french door is the deck that we built after we converted the patio. I see Gracie asleep on the sofa, lol, it's hard to get a picture around here without a cat in it!! We have the grill. wrought iron table and chairs...well, I'll do a post on the deck later! |
 |
| View out of the sunroom. It has been so dry here that the grass is really suffering, we need some rain! |
 |
| I got my train case painted finally. Now to decorate it!!! |
 |
| I have been painting jars..the pink one is a big pickle jar! |

I love your sunroom, Penny. It makes me miss the one we had in our next to last home. It always made me feel cozy and like I had wrapped a room around myself. Yours is beautiful!!! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness..where to start! There are so many gorgeous things in this post! I love your painted jars. I want to do some too. Would love to see more photos of that flag throw--I want to copy you if that is alright. I love it! Lovely fabrics. Also that suncatcher is beautiful! Boy you have been busy. I need to get to work. You are inspiring me :)
ReplyDeleteYour room is beautiful and has so many gorgeous accessories! It's lovely of you to share your room at Potpourri Friday!
ReplyDeletePenny, you are so right about French doors. I have only one on each side of my Florida room, but it's always been my dream to have that whole room done in French doors. They have such a sweet feel to them. And that armoire of yours is unbelievably beautiful. The curves the glass, the color. I really love that you have a light inside. It sure gives it an added sweetness!

ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous room!! So much I love about it, for one thing the chandy shades--how did you do them? I came from Six Sister's Strut your stuff.
ReplyDeleteJanet
well that is just lovely! I love that you can open all those doors up! Also love the decor! You do some great stuff!
ReplyDeleteI am soooo glad there are other older women out there besides me that love to decorate in the romantic style! I just love what you've done with your home, sweetpea. Hubs and I have been married over 51 years now and do just about anything we want; although, church keeps him pretty busy.

I love this room and your French doors. My husband and I are in the process of buying another home and we want to put French doors in our new bedroom. I only wish he's let me decorate the room like you did your sunroom. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteLove the look of this room with all the French doors. We did the same to our screened in porch several years ago. Now we enjoy this room year round.
ReplyDeleteSUCH a lovely room ! :)
ReplyDeleteYour sun-room is very chic.
ReplyDeletei love this penny, this is exactly what i'd like to do to the back wall of our garage, then do a little deck off of it for inside/outside covered seating......i've envisioned it looking just like your room...this is so pretty...our walls out there are brick too, and i like your's natural...i think unpainted brick adds to the shabby/vintage appeal...very pretty room you have done, and i love that one photo of the old door and "bless your home" sign and pink wreath, that looks so adorable...:)
ReplyDeleteYour sun room is so beautiful, and love all those french doors - right now having door envy! Your room is so beautiful and I would be sitting out her all year round too! Your cats look very content! Thanks for sharing your creative inspiration with Sunday’s Best – you helped make the party a success!
