We're still cleaning up around here. Friday the project of the day was the front porch. We had cubbies to clean out with vinegar spray, shoes to clean out, winter items to store away, library books to sort, toys to put away and dirt to clean up. The biggest surprise were all the stray socks I found! No wonder the kids can never find their socks when it's time to leave the house! They are all on the front porch. Good grief!

Cleaning UpEveryone has a cubby and a bin to put their things in. I bought the dishpans cheap at Walmart. Everyone has their name written on them too. They are very durable & easy to clean.
My Mom brought this carpet over for us to use.
As of now this is the finished project. We may end up getting a larger carpet and Dennis talked about trim up where the wall & ceiling meet but for the Open House this is it. I plan to take the hanging items & shoes out for the Open House. What do you think of it all? I really like it!
Here are a few pics of the room before I finished painting.
My neighbor brought the ladder up from the basement for me. I really appreciated his help. The ceilings are so high I cannot reach them without climbing to the top.
See the old yellow color at the top?

Now with the walls & trim fully painted. Two to three coats!
The Row of Windows
The color looks a little yellowish in the photo but it's really a light brown on the walls (Toasted Grain) and a tad bit darker on the trim.
