We have progress…

Finally.  Progress.  Garden Progress.

Another little peak at the porch.  Mon petit jardin.

Slowly, but surely we are plugging along.

I found an old rusted wrought iron plant stand at local junk shop, which is a perfect home for my Boston Fern.  We are still sans Frenchbistro table and chairs, as well as a shabby cream chandelier that I imagine hanging from the porch ceiling.

But, we now have shutters!  This is to block the view from the other side of the porch, which belongs to our neighbors. 

Let’s just say their side leaves something to be desired. 

Chris worked hard this weekend hinging both shutters together.  Now he just needs to add decorative cast iron feet, so that the wind doesn’t blow them over.

I think I may try to find a little old distressed french sign to hang from the shutters. Maybe some ivy dripping down the front in a hanging wall pocket.

What do you think?  Do you see possibilities?  Please share.
