Porch Progress: The last leg (hopefully)

I am really hoping we are down to the last leg of our screen porch renovation journey.  Ideally, we'll be done this week but the weather will have to hold for that to happen.

Here's the view from the back of the house.  The area without a railing is the doorway. There's a frame there now but it has been raining here most of the weekend and I didn't get an updated picture.

Here are a couple of close-ups of the railing detail.  Loooooove it.




From the front...

I finally made a decision on the porch ceiling.  Took a week to make that decision but only about 2 minutes to choose a color for the floor! I'll keep you in suspense for a couple more days.  Hopefully I'll be showing final pictures early next week!

Next up will be fixing the landscaping around the porch a bit and get about 20 bags of mulch to fill in what is washed away.  The work area is really clean though so I don't think it will take much to make it all nice again... I hope.  Our front yard is also in major need of some grass seed and water. Our sprinklers have been turned off throughout the porch renovation so I am itching to get them turned back on and get our grass back in shape.

And then there's furniture... I have my eye on a table which I may fill you in on next week.

Feels good to be in the last few days of this project... I'm ready to eat dinner out there again!
