$75 Porch Makeover!

If you're like us, money can often be a little tight from the array of unexpected expenses that pop up with an old house. But with the house being appraised for a chance to refinance, we decided the porch needed a little sprucing up. Nothing like solid curb appeal to welcome the appraiser in!

After spraying the porch down and giving it a solid and much needed cleaning, here's what we did with just $75 and a little left over paint from the foundation project (note the columns).

Nothing like a few little pops of color to give the house a stylish update!

Shopping List:
2 Bags of Potting Soil: $6.46
2 Striped Outdoor Pillows: $13.98
Sunburst Door Mat: $18.97
Hosta (Quart): $2.50
Salvia May Night (5.5 L): $8.97
Europys (1G): $6.97
Paint (Already Had): $0
3 Pots (Already Had): $0
---------------------------
Total: $71.83

Stay Tuned...

So clearly Bungalow Bliss has taken a bit of a much needed vacation recently. But due to some unforeseen circumstances, we're back and will be blogging with a vengeance.

For the 60% (ok...so it was only 3 of you) that voted for the front porch in the "What project should we do next?" poll, well someone heard your vote and the project has started.

Stay Tuned...you won't want to miss this one...
