A little porchlight inspiration

Okay.. so I basically made up my own word in honour of this blog... or, I guess all I did was take out the space between two words. That's just how I roll.

What does it mean to be "by the porchlight" anyway? It is just that some bad speller who likes to creep on her neighbours all day sitting on her front porch?

Well, whenever I think about my happy place (or just about relaxing in not so lame-faced terms), I always go directly to the image of some kind of porch, a good book, and a cool breeze. That is my happy place. And it was the inspiration for this blog.

To me, this blog is about finding new ways to be creative, finding a little more purpose. And what is more inspiring that a happy place! A porch!

Check out these incredible porches. My inspiration spaces.

Some day--maybe only in my dreams--one of these will be my reality.

Love this! The fourth one is my FAVORITE! A porch, a good book, and a glass of sweet tea is my perfect afternoon!

I have a secret love of porches. I'd love to have one like number 2 someday

Those look so relaxing! I would love to have a beach house with a sleeper porch. I would never leave.

My favorite is the second porch. Maybe it's because I grew up in the country, but I prefer the cozy, bucolic look. :)
