I've had a few requests for some pictures of my house. Since we've already covered the pink kitchen, the sewing room, the back porch and the back porch at the beginning of the Summer, I thought I'd just bore you with outside photos this time around. Say, does anyone know how to put your previous posts into categories? 
We have two sleeping porches, one upstairs and one downstairs. It's called a sleeping porch because when the house was built, it was the coolest room on those hot summer nights. They'd throw open all the windows and get a breeze. There's 11 windows in the lower room and 12 in the upper so window treatments are a real issue. My husband uses the upper sleeping porch as his office. He has the best corner office ever!
This is my parents' first house.
I love the porches. And using one as an office is a great idea. Nice view, nice breeze. Wish I could see your parents a little better.

ReplyDeleteYour blog is lovely. I linked here from nunnie's attic. If you want to put your posts into categories you can label them as you write them in blogger. There is a spot at the bottom of the posting box. Type in the name you want. To add labels to older posts go into "Edit Posts" and click on "Label Actions" and add a new label. From there you can also add the new labels to the old posts. The labels will automatically appear on your sidebar and under your posts. I hope this was helpful and not too confusing! Feel free to email me if you need to.
ReplyDeleteYour house is beautiful!
