Watch as we slowly, oh so slowly, turn this unloved and neglected historic, mid-century gem from "Oh honey, you're just gonna have to gut it!" into a fabulous, comfortable, totally cool space to love. We're doing all of the work ourselves on a shoestring budget. The work takes time since we work all week but we're dedicated to the project.

The Little Back Porch
















When we first moved into the house there was a little covered porch on the north end of the "very long room" where we stored anything we didn't have room for at the time, primarily my husband's tools. After he added a workshop to the west side of the carport for his tools we decided to turn this covered porch into a screened-in porch. Here are photos of the project and the end result. My husband had collected some lovely antique wicker furniture when he lived in MN. I paid a small fortune to have the furniture repaired and painted them white. They look so nice on this porch and add a feminine touch.
