What's on your front porch?

[hrh_disney_queen]

Right now?

Mine has: the remains of a boat outing (2 life jackets, a beach bag, and a cooler-still w/water in it) from last SATURDAY, a bunch of flower pot dishes, a box of rocks, and the decorative cement rabbit that is SUPPOSED to be there.

Thank goodness it's a small porch, otherwise there might be a refrigerator on it...

we have 2 adirondack type chairs...a small table in between (that the dog has claimed as her own personal chair )...2 big flower pots full of, well, flowers...4 hanging baskets...and the extra flowers i had left over when i put the 2 flower pots together!

oh and my DH's muddy shoes...

Dh's "shop shoes"
A door mat
A hedgehog shoe brush

We don't really have a porch....just an entry into the house. The big stuff is out the back door.

Don't EVEN get me started on the back door!! (THAT'S where the refrigerator is!!)

Right now we have two chairs and a really really dirty glass end table, also a Mickey doormat. Soon there will be some hanging flower baskets, but we don't have them yet. Oh yeah, there is also a Stitch automatic bubble blower still sitting out there from last summer, covered in cobwebs.

My front porch is really a small stoop in front of the door--it isn't a real porch. I have two concrete Scottish Terrier statues and a "Wipe Your Paws" doormat. Tried flowers one year but they burned up.

A grill, patio furniture & a table with 6 chairs.

3 pots of flowers, a doormat, and my gardening gloves from last weekend. Cause I go outside to smoke, and sit there and see weeds, so keeping them handy is easier to pull them out.
Usually DD's softball cleats are out there too, but they are in the car, since she had a game today, but was rained out.

Fun thread!!

There are two loveseat size gliders, a welcome-type mat, my pruning shears...a whole BUNCH of bright flowers waiting to be put in pots, AND.......................


a brand spankin new robins nest filled with eggs and mama bird.

It wasn't there at 3 this afternoon...how do they manage to build them so fast? I think it's gonna be hard to work out there with the mama bird keeping her eye on me.

Front "porch" - welcome mat and a Mickey statue - now the back! We won't go there! We don't live in a neighborhood, we're out in the country - the little part of the country that is left in Greenville County! So I don't have to worry what anyone thinks because no one can see it!!

FP: 3 chairs, table, some pots with dirt in them (too lazy to put plants in them LOL), plant rack with more potted dirts, welcome mat.

There is a house that I pass daily that has a working Coke machine on their porch. One of these days I'm gonna stop for a drink =) I wonder what they'd say? LOL

Oh no… I’m a poor porchless girl ! I have a sidewalk to the front door with one step up to the house.

I finished scrubbing down our screened in front porch (way too much gingerbread!) a couple days before we left for WDW last week. I moved the furniture back out there, white wicker with big cushy pillows...sofa, 2 chairs, a table, and a rocker. This weekend I will move the larger houseplants out there. It's a lovely, cool place to sit with a glass of wine at the end of the day.

Our front porch is really small so there's not too much there. We have a flowered welcome mat from Target, a fern, and ivy on a plant stand, and a birdhouse.

It sounds like she was in a hurry to deposit those eggs!!

My mom has a wren nest in a birdhouse that is sitting on her back porch. She said she was surpirsed because it is supposed to be a decorative birdhouse. I guess the bird didn't care..

I thought the little ones came in the early spring???

OMG, I live in Greenville County, too. Not exactly in the country, but a heavily wooded area with lots of space between the houses and between the houses and the road. So you can't see my mess from the road, unless of course the UPS guy comes up to the porch. Come to think of it, FedEX did make a delivery the other day. I'd better go clear some of that stuff off, or people will think we're the Clampetts! (I'm considered Greenville, but not in the city limits..Paris Mountain..Where are you?)

 

[Ellen aka Snow White]

I'm on the other end of Hwy 25 - South of Greenville - not the city limits either, but still Greenville County!

Oh boy, my front porch is a catch-all for stuff that needs to be in the barn. Unfortunately our garden is on one side of the house and the barn is on the other. That means that when David's done working in the garden he brings all his equipment as far as the front porch and dumps it and his work boots on his way into the house to shower.
Besides hoes, rakes, seed packets and various other garden 'stuff', I've got a plant stand and a telescope on the front porch. Living in a rual area means we don't have much light polution so stars are incredibly bright for us and we like to set up the telescope and look at stars, moon and other planets fairly often.
