I have been dreaming of this day. It was Christmas in July, as far as I am concerned. The back porch is covered! I am pretty sure it was 100 degrees today, and I am 35 weeks pregnant, but I was determined. Before you judge, Nate did offer to help, but he needed to lend a hand later than I had in mind. I started without him, against his wishes.
Take a look:
 |
| A mess of metal. Will I succeed? |
 |
| The framework is up! |
 |
| We did it! It wasn't too bad. |
 |
| I scrubbed the cheap plastic table down along with the weathered chairs |
 |
| Put the finishing touches on |
 |
| Added some amiance. Okay, okay, I threw some unused candles and a pot base together for a little decoration. |
 |
| We plan on picking up some ferns for the planters. Maybe tomorrow. . |
 |
| And done! |
NOTE: We originally got pricing for a fixed awning on this existing slab. It would have cost $4,200.00. No thanks! This was from IKEA, and cost $130.00
