Lanterns For The Porch


Over the weekend we went to a big party and I brought a old time favorite, macaroni salad, and I made brownies from scratch.,I will write a post on that later this week.

Sunday I started coating my boards with a outdoor sealer from Minwax, maybe I will be able to finish my outdoor bar server this weekend.

Today We spent all day at the lake and it was lovely. 

Friday I hung these up on my porch.

I picked up 3 for a $1.50, but I cut the shells off. I think I might see if they have more or use something different and add a few more to make a cluster of them. 

Here is a photo I found that has a cluster of lanterns hanging. 


Here is mine

One of my candle holders for the blue jar is missing, I hope its in the house somewhere, otherwise I'll stick a glass tea light holder in the lantern. 

I still have so much more I want to do...




I have a hard time deciding on a just a few photos. 


What did you do this weekend?

  4. Looks great! I cant wait to have a back porch some day...not this year but some day! Our back patio is way too sunny in the morning and early afternoon but nice and shady at night. We need to get an umbrella or something...hmmm...maybe even a patio table! :)
