At our house, summer is a time for hanging out on the porch...we live out there. Last year I bought some fabric to make new cushions for the glider and wicker, so this year I tackled it. It's mostly done now...just a few finishing touches to go. The hammock is a souvenir from Hawaii...very comfy!
Of course it's important to have a good assistant! I got a new piece of foam (denser and thicker) for the seat of the glider. The old piece lets you feel the straps under you...time to change that.
Then I used the old seat cushion as the back....that's what I'm cutting in the photo above. A great way to cut foam is to use your electric knife.
Now the seats are together, but I need a few cushions to throw around. The porch has a lot of crazy color...it's cheerful anyway!
Joe is working on building some bookshelves for the living room. This is something I've wanted for a long time...some floor to ceiling bookshelves to get all the books off the floors, stacked on tables.

Lovely porch. I'm anxious for our construction to be done so we can sit on our own porch and watch the traffic go by.
Your porch just gets better and better! It looks like Joe got his work area cleared out....good for him. I can't wait to see the bookshelves when they are completed.
