Love this view!😍⛲️🌿 I’ve been doing a lot of porch appreciation this beautiful week. It’s nice to create, carve, contemplate...taking my time to appreciate the process and this moment. 🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿 . . . . . #ladyhanoverpress #modernmaker #printmaking #printproject #artisticprocess #linocut #handcarved #posterprint #printingisfun #linoleumcarving #linoprint #linoprintwip #slowcraft #madeingeorgia #madeinthesouth #fern #bostonfern #ferntastic #iloveferns #southernporch (at Hanover Square) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7XKmmLgfsO/?igshid=lf2oks90951x

Porch weather is almost here! . . I keep saying that but what’s up with this record breaking heat? 🥵 . . Today is the last day of excessive heat here in the South! (HOPEFULLY) 🤞🤞 . . I’m told tomorrow should be 20-30 degrees cooler! It will be perfect for porch sitting! 😁 . . My daughter and SIL are coming for the weekend! So if you need me, you can find me right here! . . I’m also hoping to share my full porch tour with you this weekend! If you watched my stories, you know Fedex is holding my wreath hostage. It’s the craziest thing! 😜😜 AND, it’s not EVEN funny anymore! 😱😱 I need my wreath! . . Tell me what plans you have for this first weekend of October!! . . #fallporchdecor #thepondsfarmhouse #mycountryhome #mysouthernliving #myfleamarketstyle #cottagestylemagazine #bhghome #whitefarmhousedecor #autumnvibes🍁 #showoffyourseasonaldecor #thefarmhousemovement #sweetcountryhomes #farmhousefeatures #southernladymag #fleamarketdecor #prettyporchesandpatios #southernporch #frontporchsitting #stylingmyseasons #fallfoliageandpumpkins #farmhousestylewelove #yourinspireddesign #fabulousfarmhousefriday (at Birkhead Mountains Wilderness) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4njwItgPvL/?igshid=2n0w59ztmt84

Weekday breakfast pretty as a picture - goodness knows I love my carbs! It’s comfortable in the shade of a massive spruce but it’s going to be another scorcher despite summer storms predicted. The sky is so blue making the pink blooms on my dogwoods and hydrangeas more intense - nature’s exercise in color theory. ⠀ ⠀ Lots of work to do but I’m enjoying this for now.⠀ ⠀ These are my pineapple design in maple... sizes small and medium.⠀ ⠀ #pineapplelantern #lantern #southernwelcome #hawaiiandecor #tableaccents #candleholders #lanaihawaii #thebigislandhawaii #hawaii #hawaiistagram #konahawaii #staycation #charlestoncharm #charlestonliving #charlestonlife #charlestonblogger #traveldiaries #travelgram #charlestondaily #weekendready #southerncharm #blueandwhiteforever #blueandwhite #chinoiserie #chinoiseriechic #frontporch #porchdecor #porchsitting #southernporch #frontporch — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2DPlD47

Forklore in the Southern US has it that in order to keep unwanted spirits away from your home the ceilings of the porch, doors or trim may be painted “haint” blue.  The traditions carries on today as seen in the photos of these recently built homes in South Carolina.

Beaufort South Carolina is a coastal community with homes in their historic district commonly following the long time tradition.

Which do you prefer?? 🤔 . . A Rocking Chair or a Porch Swing? . . Both say “Southern Porch” to me!! 🧡🧡 . . So we have both! I’m always on the look out for these #kennedyrockers that were originally manufactured here in Asheboro and were made famous by President John F. Kennedy! . . The cane on this one has become brittle so I’ve added a throw! The hold up for years and are the best for Porch sitting! . . I hope you saw my full porch tour yesterday!! The highlight of the tour was my wreaths from @floraltreasure 🧡. . . Although one of them was held hostage by Fedex all week, it finally arrived Saturday 👏👏👏! . . You can see the full tour on IGTV or in my stories highlights! Let me know if you watch! . . I hope you have a blessed day and enjoy the little things this Sunday! . . #floraltreasure #thepondsfarmhouse #mycountryhome #mysouthernliving #myfleamarketstyle #cottagestylemagazine #bhghome #whitefarmhousedecor #woodsandwhites #thefarmhousemovement #sweetcountryhomes #fallfoliageandpumpkins #ourrustichavenfall #fallspaceswelove #farmhousefeatures #southernporch #prettyporchesandpatios #southernladymag #fleamarketdecor (at Birkhead Mountains Wilderness) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3R3auaA2aV/?igshid=1foyq63iitkuw
