About your porch


Ready for something a little different?  My friend Rich was for his covered balcony.  

His place is beautiful.  Traditional, but with a lighter hand and a fresher feel.  And he couldn't find anything that would really continue that outside.

So he watched Craigslist for a while.  It took a bit of time, but finally the right pair of wing chairs came up.  The ones with the straight leg.  And he grabbed them.

His upholsterer sent the shot above.  She's nearly finished and he's pretty excited.  The tan fabric and ivory welt is Sunbrella, so if the wind blows a little rain or snow onto his covered balcony it won't be a big deal.

He liked my suggestion of using Resto's zinc klismos side table between them.  The balcony's not huge so 24 inches and round is a great size.  AND its on sale.  A couple bright pillows and the vintage german porcelain ash tray I gave him a few years ago and he's set.
