Welcoming in May with a Patriotic Porch

Goodbye April.....Welcome May!     

I thought the perfect way to welcome in May would be to create a Patriotic theme for the front porch.     

First,    I hung a Patriotic wreath on the door......

Then     I made a Patriotic garland to hang on the wall next to the front door.......

   I moved down to the seating area of the porch to add some touches of Patriotic decor there......

My mother made the ruffled striped pillows I put in the rockers.     I use them every year in my Patriotic decor in her memory........

Here's the other rocker and matching pillow. 

    If you follow my blog,   you probably remember that there were 2 chaise lounges on the far end of the porch before......now you see a BBQ grill in their place.     What's up with that you ask!!!!     We cook out so much on the front porch that I decided we needed an outdoor kitchen.     Can't wait to share it with you when I've finished it!

I hung my absolute favorite Patriotic picture over the couch.    It is a vintage Home Interior piece that I've had for years.

United we Stand........that couldn't be more true this year after all our nation has been thru!

I can't wait to carry my Patriotic porch theme on out into the yard......

And,   I still need to add some Patriotic touches to this side of the porch too!

Before I close my post ,   I want to share the new mailbox that H added to the front yard......

After he put it up   I added the finial touch.... my new hen mailbox cover      (you can find my magnetic mailbox cover here......https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0823N6KG4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I always enjoy your visits so much.....please come back again soon!
