Porch Thing By Holly Cellini | Photography by Michele Mabie
Happy summer, everyone! This is my favorite time of year. We celebrate our amazing country, school being out, and long days. Porches are so much fun this time of year with American flags, bunting, and patriotic pillows. The weather is perfect for long visits with friends. I suggest adding some lanterns to your porch this time of year. I have some outdoor automatic-timer candles in all of my lanterns. I am always ready for some evening chats! My other go-to is citronella candles. I have at least one on my front porch to keep those bugs away. I would love to see some of your patriotic porches! Please message me a photo of your porch on my It’s a Porch Thing Facebook page. I would love to see lots of proud red, white, and blue! Have an amazing summer with your family and friends. Cheers,
