BY SANDRA HOWIE AND HARDROCK CONSTRUCTION

We are so lucky to have not one but three original three season porches to enjoy in our century home. This one faces the street and instead of the traditional wicker we put our extra large comfy chairs out there for us to enjoy on weekends. The antique table was free! we found it in the basement covered in dust when we moved in. I left the old chippy paint and sanded the top and gave it two coats of tung oil to highlight the patina. We removed cheap panelling from the walls to uncover the original siding which I painted cloud white. The floors although grey here are now Benjamin Moores Manchester tan.
