Summer Settings II

When I'm not on our front porch I'm on our side porch. I noticed our side porch has quite a few "misfits", unsold items from my shop and the flea market.This white table/chair combo is the last of 4. Maybe it's meant to be that I end up with one to hold my VERY PINK umbrella! This potting shed is a misfit from Very Vintage and the French Flea. I acquired it from a lady whose late husband crafted it from an old door. It now houses bird seed, squirrel peanuts and garden junque. The ornate white pillars didn't sell at the French Flea III, so now they're mine. Recently, we had a yard sale. This Hello Kitty pillow didn't sell for $1, so my 5 year old "rescued" her. She now adds a youthful whimsy to our porch. How could I let her go? What was I thinking? There are a few items I purchased. For example, I bought the vintage metal furniture I call a "couch." It's sturdy and perfectly rusty! I also bought a pair of pink metal lanterns (only one is pictured.) They're open on all sides causing candles to extinguish with the slightest breeze, so I use battery operated faux tea lights. This bird feeder is a great vintage find! This is Rex our adopted outdoor cat. He's my favorite find AND he loves our side porch. It's where he eats, bird watches and lounges. There's something wonderful about a porch cat!
