Front Porch Sneak Peek and If YOU Featured Me




   Let me start this post by attempting to express my severe embarrassment:(:(    As many of you know I am no anxiety and depression medication.    Being in my late 50's and never having been a medication taking person-- this stuff is helping me alot in many ways but in others, its kicking my butt~!      I remember that in the last month or so- some blogs featured my posts.  I was Thrilled and I thanked them BUT  I cant remember who they were and if I saved their Featured Button, I cant find the folder I would have put it in  " see very shamey face here":(:(    so please forgive me- it always thrills me to be featured and I want so much to show off the blogs who did so.

  my email is right up top and it would mean so much if you could email me so I could come to your blog - get my feautured button and post it on my sidebar..  I dont take being recognized by ya'll lightly believe me..

________________________________________________

 now on to the sneak peek:)    in the short intervals between rain in the last 8 days I've been out on the front porch adding and taking away accessories , as well as trying to decide on pillow fabric.
  I found the teal n white bird pillow at lowes-- Love it~!  10.49 on sale-- wooohooooo

  Do ya like the floral I choose or is it too bold?   How about the colors?   It takes a little something to show up when your home is solid brick ..   Please leave an honest opinion in your comment..
  I appreciate your help and suggestions..

 Use this Fabric?
Use something more Subtle?
 Use solid or stripe instead?

What say You?
thanks for Visiting.. I appreciate it and you add lots of smiles to my days.

  1. I think the floral is great. The bird pillow is simple so it doesn't contrast with the floral.

  2. Love how that bird pillow ties in with your lamp, Sonny! I think the color is great and the bird is subtle. I also like the floral and think you could do a few patterns out here without it being overwhelming. Solid, floral, stripes ~ I think it makes it more interesting.

  3. I love the pillows! They look perfect. Please don't feel you have to apologize, Sonny. We've all had illnesses of one type or another. Yours is no different. Getting use to meds is a little hard. I can still remember what it was like for me 30 years ago!

  8. I advise sticking to a solid for the overall seating fabric and use that pretty and bold fabric as a pillow - looks great with your birdie pillow.

    Hoping you are feeling well soon.
    Hang in there and don't beat yourself for the little things.

    Hugs.

  19. Hi Sonny!

    I love both pillows, and that is my honest opinion!! The colors are so nice, and the floral is just right. I think I prefer the floral to stripes, but that's just me. Also, the dish garden looks lovely on your table, and that lamp is absolutely charming!! I'm really enjoying these sneak peeks of your new front porch.

    Hang in there with your meds.; sometimes they're just a necessary evil in life. It sounds like they've helped you a lot, and we're so glad to have you back blogging with us. :)

    Hugs to you Sonny,

    Denise at Forest Manor
