The porch has turned out to be a bigger project than I had originally hoped. I had big plans to reglaze the old windows because they open all the way up and are really neat. Unfortunately, we just don’t have the time. $300 later we have some great new vinyl windows.

Before:

After:

We had to build the windows in a bit because they didn’t make the exact size, but I’m kind of loving the bold trim.
After looking at it, I think the upstairs windows might need some shutters because they look pretty small next to the new porch windows.

I have also been busy priming and painting. I painted the porch a blue-grey color. The ceiling and floor will be white.

The color is lighter than it appears in pictures and really pops next to the white trim. I’ve got a bit more trim to do and I have to paint the floor, but we’re in the home stretch!

Thanks for reading!
