Rusted settee and table on the sun porch
Just a quick side trip back to the exterior. After putting the portico together, I felt the rest of the porch was unfinished. Quite awhile ago, I decided to make the open portion a sun porch. Tonight, I finished up the pieces and installed them.
I had previously painted the railings and corner post with an underlayer of black paint. I used crackle medium and followed it up with white paint. I used headless pins instead of glue to hold the railing assembly together and to attach it to the house and portico. This way I can remove it if I need to for roof shingling and other construction. It's actually sturdy enough that I could skip adding glue completely.
I added a sprinkling of the leaves I made for some fun photos. Even in its worn out condition, that settee looks pretty comfortable.
