Yesterday I shared what stage our house is at with the build process.
One of the first things I purchased was the Luciana swing for our front porch. I ordered it from Grandin Road. It was on special plus I had an additional coupon thanx to my pal Susan from Between Naps on The Porch so it was a steal of a deal at less than $200 with shipping! I have always dreamed of having a porch swing and can not wait to hang it up. |
I also just ordered two of their Nantucket rocking chairs for the front porch after they sent me an additional 30% off all sale email. I love the rockers because they have a distressed feel to them. |
The closer we get to completion I will start purchasing the exterior lighting. I have picked out Allen + Roth Castine lighting from Lowes. The X design matches the backing of the porch swing as well as the cross buck doors we will have at the back of the house. We will have a cross buck door from the garage and then one for our backdoor. I am just giddy over the thought of those!:) There will be two of these lights on each side of our front door and then one on the front of the garage. There is also a flush mount ceiling fixture in the same line that will be for the breezeway from our garage to the house. I still need to pick out two ceiling fans for the front porch. I have not yet decided if I want them to be just plain fans or if I want them to have lighting as well. If lighting then I will just go with the fans from the same Castine line. Wait till you see some of the lighting I have stashed away for the interior of the house!:) |
Oh what fun this is to go along with you for the ride! It's going to be fabulous.

Thank you my friend!
DeleteLove your choices! That porch swing has always been a dream of mine. We have the same porch lights...they are large and beautiful. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Stacey! Well that is good to hear that you love them! I can not decided if I was to do the smaller ones on the porch and a larger one on the garage or just all large.
