Good evening blogging buddies!
Hope everyone is safe in the path of the upcoming storm.
Our weather folks are saying we will be getting
these strong storms sometime tomorrow.
Most of you know already how we chose
our store name
Back Porch Antiques.
For my new followers,
I will give you the short story.

When we moved our business to our own store,

Made with reclaimed beadboard, paint, old windows.
Even some old tin roofing we had laying around.
I think he did a great job!
Do you like our new porch?
