Pretty up the porch

I love it when Memorial Day arrives because then I can plant flowers without worrying too much about freezing.  It's when summer begins! The porch is always looking frumpy in the spring.  My pots that I had on either side of the front door rotted out.  So it was time to try something new.  I had this old milk can and I had made the red box a while ago. I just spray painted a couple clay pots and added them to the mix. Of course, adding the patriotic star is great from Memorial day all the way through July.

  The pillows I covered with new outdoor fabric to spruce them up. A little color always does the trick.

The crate came from Joann's. It was unfinished and I spray painted it red. Just a small spruce up but a fun change.

The flag is something I made a few years ago and still use every year. 

What do you think?
