Outdoors: Screened Porch Roundup
From Julie
As summer slips away, we find ourselves thinking about how screened porches extend the seasons. Here's a roundup of some favorites.

Ah, you have no idea how much I would love one of those! I especially like the idea of filling the room with a giant table to use for dinner parties.
Enjoyed your blog.
you might want to enjoy the
web site for www.Greendemolitions.org
they have3 locations,NY,Pa.&Ct
They carefully remove high end
kitchens and bathrooms. Hugh
amount of merchandise that can
be seen thru their web site and
at their show-room, this is a
non-profit org. You must take your time and search this site.
they do deliver as well. You could get new cabinets . Your kitchen looks small so you might want to use
a few cabinets that have glass doors
You would still have plenty of
money to get the granite or marble countertops and french doors and white subwway tiles.
I would urge you to look into
a discount warehouse that sells
your applicances with a slight
dent or mark. Somtimes the dent
mark is never seen since it is
installed next to the wall.I know there is one in New Jersey. Kasey, you are lucky to have a carpenter friend, you wil be able to save a fortune.
Most of the customers at green demolitions are affluent, you can read their
blogs before and after pictures.
For your need of fabric, your charis from craigs list.
You may want to check out a store in manhattan, called
Barnazelli, between 59&60St and 2nd avenue near the tram.
It is owed by the famous Scalamandre fabric .this is the outlet for their company.
good luck and enjoy.
