Pleasures of the Porch

Remember the fabric and the potting bench? Put them together and they become a server. With ice added to the tub, you've got a great place to cool beverages. Some potting benches may have additional shelving that could hold more glassware and dishes. Keep your extra supplies behind the cafe curtains and you won't have to worry about running into the house for more! The fabric is from Carole Fabrics, and the custom cut hardware is from Endisco.









Walking around the corner of this particular porch, you'll find a nice place to relax with that drink you just poured. The rug under the furniture is an indoor/outdoor area rug from Surya. They have a large assortment of rugs, from wool to polypropylene, contemporary to traditional.

Here's a closeup from the front porch. These pillows are from Dash and Albert. You might be familiar with their rugs, but they also have some great pillows, throws and tote bags. If you're a dog lover, you'll love their website. They always feature their pooches in their ads, which makes us all ooh and aah.

We will soon be the area dealer for Dash and Albert. If you see something you like, come by and see us. We have several things in house and we will also be carrying their full line of rug samples. No more guesswork on matching your decor! There will be much more to tell you about in the near future. If you think their things look familiar, you've probably seen them in some of the magazines you read. Their great colors and classic patterns really draw you in--along with their dogs.
