Plants!! Curtain on the western end to keep the heat down in the evenings. Lights for at night. More seating. Love it so far.

It’s perfect less is more don’t over doit

[@michaelsnider2484]

@@octavia206 where will friends and family sit? More seating, please.

[@IMChrysalis]

Yes to more seating, but build a low planter all across the front of the porch, and put a low-back couch or bench in front of it, with a few small tables for drinks... and finish it off with a few outdoor wall mounted speakers for your stereo. Party time- or romance- i,s always better with the right music.

A porch swing, some flowers, a shade and some soft lighting. It's beautiful. Love the coffee table ! Great job

[@cynthialistovitch6395]

DEFINITELY A SWING..❤😊

[@peggyjames1668]

My thought exactly

[@pinayinhawaii5572]

For kids, yes

[@darleneyoung6436]

I really like the way you redid the coffee table and the floor.

[@jodishepard1861]

I was thinking of one of those partially enclosed swings with pillows in it so you could sit in and read. 😊

Hammock

[@serrinahuntercarducci3057]

Out door string lights for a nice night time relaxation is always nice.

[@mianta55]

This looks wonderful. Ceiling fans with palm leaves fan blades are a good touch. ❤

[@tinydancer7426]

Especially if you re gonna be out there at night. turn the fans on to keep the bugs at bay. Also, some bug zapping lights,

[@dunigan4225]

A small table for evening dinners. Screen to keep bugs out and keep the sun down a little. A swing would be nice

[@user-vb4or7ze7n]

Looks great. I agree with all the above comments, more seating, plants, fan, lights and outdoor rugs to tie space together.

[@SheriBabyyy]

Yes, especially outdoor rugs! Defines seating areas, etc.

[@danafrancis3990]

The coffee table is adorable 🥰

[@Bellaluccaminis]

Love it! I'll add a hammock for those lazy weekend afternoon naps 😊...and yes a square table with 4 chairs to play poker or monopoly 😅

[@janetamerasinghe7824]

Fabulous! You're so talented!

[@deborahbarone1791]

The porch looks great. I love the idea of cafe lights. Ceiling fans would keep it cool and keep bugs away. My first thought was that it needs a dining space. A re-purposed chandelier over the table. It is easy to find them at thrift stores. Flowers are always wonderful in any outdoor space. Someone mentioned planter boxes. I like that idea.

[@debraowen6723]

Cynthia says a SWING! YES! GREAT IDEA!

Perhaps you can stencil in small shapes of a complimentary yet contrasting color to connect the large squares - circles, diamonds, or stars. Like a mosaic tile design.

Looking lovely great👍👏👏👏 , please make 2 smaller chairs too . Some plants, light for night. Make a nice cooler stand and a grill then you all set

[@theresabennett5892]

Nice. 🎉. Dinning table to eat outside would be wonderful. Check your thrift shops

Maybe 1 or 2 blue L.E.D. lights? At night, it gives off a "full moon" glow! 🌕 So relaxing. 😊

[@erinqjones7048]

For a man you have a really nice outlook for decorating and a nice vision. Trust your gut, you will know what you want.

[@seriouslyreally5413]

Beautiful!!!! You still saved from the price of new but $10 for table and $20 for paint, $12 for stain & $10 for the poly spray. Much less if you already have leftover paint, stain and only had to buy the spray poly. Most furniture flippers have no idea that their "free" furniture rehab cost is actually all in the paint finishes. 😏 you still have a bargain because new patio pieces are outrageously expensive, made of cheap MDF or plastic resin.❤👍

[@MisstressLola]

So cute! What about a game, like a ping pong table, or chess? A refreshment area!

[@annsmith7207]

Great job -- although the total cost for the table ought to include the paint, the minwax stain and polycrylic as well as any other expenses incurred. Even if that total is $50 -- totally worth it !

[@user-pb4wv9hf1t]

Its looking good. I love the table!

[@tammyjeans8684]
