PICK A PORCH---PICK YOUR FAVORITE

I have so much fun doing these posts
and tallying up the results.
It's simple and easy.
Just pick the number of the porch you like best.

So no one's feelings are hurt these are all from
MARTHA STEWART & POTTERY BARN
AND PINTEREST.
I don't want to make this a
"that's my favorite blogger's porch" competition.

Kapeesh?
That is Polish Native American Urban talk for
UNDERSTAND?

First up!
WREATH OF MEMORIES

#2
RAKE READY

#3
LEAFY WREATHY

#4
OLD STONY

#5
ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK DOOR

#6
NOT CORNY AT ALL
Source unknown

#7
NATURALLY NEUTRAL
So- there you go!
Pick a number from 1 to 7
ONLY ONE!
You DO remember the rules, don't you?
I will tally them up 
and give you the results in a day or two.

Now, voting is 
NOT A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION...
but there are SOME situations like that....
especially for SPIDERS at MY HOUSE

As SweetCheeks once said to me as I was
getting out of the shower:
You look a LOT BETTER with your clothes on, Nana.
Me:  Thank you, SweetCheeks!
SC:  You're welcome!

Gotta love a kid like that!

    Some of them look overdone and fake-y which is why I pick number four which looks as if it could be an actual person's front porch and not styled :)

    Diana, Those darn spiders are always peeking. LOL I sure have missed your kids stories. I really like number 4. I saw a man hoisting up a pumpkin that had to weight hundreds of pounds two days ago, he was using a block and tackle ...I hate that I did not have my camera with me. I am thinking of going back by his house and begging to get photos. Yes, I am shameless. LOL. Blessings, xoxo,Susie

    Happy Saturday Morning my friend. I am in love with #3. I think that looks so pretty and I love the front door. They are all so pretty so which ever one gets the most votes is great. They are all soooooo pretty. Have a great week end.

    They are all beautiful, Diana, it sure was a tough decision. While I do like them all I would go with #3 Leafy Wreathy today. Thanks for sharing some that I haven't seen before. I'm thinking that I need to hurry up and Fall-ify my front porch lol. Thanks also for your kind comment over at Junk Chic Cottage on my Blogger Spotlight! I changed my blog name a while ago so yes, that is why my blog dropped off your blog roll :) Have a great weekend.

  29. ConnieOctober 3, 2015 at 11:08 AM

    I choose #6 because it looks the coziest . . . . warm and friendly . . . not too up tight. It looks like the place you could walk through the door and go straight to the kitchen and help yourself to a warm bowl of soup :)

    I choose #1. I'm a nut for any way to display my photos. As a matter of facts, I've spent a couple of days turning an old window into a photo frame. I've mod podged and peeled 3 times now and still haven't gotten the look I want. I'm not sure this is for me!

    I like # 6 as it is Halloween time and It shows the orange well and inside too the windows. If it seems messy. Halloween is messy as it has all kinds of things about. Pertaining Orange. I think one year you did a white pumpkin. It was okay but I guess I am an old fashion girl when it comes to Orange for Halloween.

    Number six. But I have a really close second! But I'll keep it to myself because I know how you feel about more than one choice. The first ones just look at little too busy for me. OK the second one is number four. Very simple just like me. Tell sweet cheeks to behave herself...

    I just love #7! The white pumpkins in the urns, and the wreath and little chalkboard sign are SO me! That is too funny about SweetCheeks. Only kids can get away with saying whatever comes to mind! Well, then when you get really old, you can just tell it like it is, and who cares?!! hahaha!
    Which one is your favorite, Diana?

  63. Bethany CarsonOctober 3, 2015 at 7:58 PM

    Oooh, these contests are *so* fun Diana! I always love them.
    I'm going with #4. I much prefer the simplicity! Some of the others look like they'd be a lot of work to clean up in the snow or rain when fall is over.

    Why do you always make these so hard to choose from, Diana!? : ) I had to look through them 6 times to pick one and tried to do the "which one do my eyes seem to stay on the longest", but that wasn't much help either. I reluctantly choose #1 {although, #3 was very close!}.
