Swing Into Summer on a New Porch Swing

Comment

Pergola Porch Swing

The gentle sway of a porch swing can soothe you after a long day or provide a comfortable setting for an after dinner conversation. Porch swings are an ideal spot for reading the morning paper, or for sipping iced tea on a hot afternoon. Handcrafted porch swings and resin wicker porch swings will whisk you away to that idyllic spot you’ve been envisioning.

If your porch is too small for a porch swing, or if you don’t have a porch at all you can use a Pergola Swing Set, pictured above. They are stylish and sturdy free-standing swings that can provide all the romance and comfort of a traditional porch swing.

Many porch swings are handcrafted with Western Red Cedar or made with Resin Wicker. Both materials look just as beautiful and are durable and sturdy.

Start relaxing this spring and into the lazy days of summer on a beautiful porch swing.

Practicing with a backyard golf set will help you lower your score. Whether you are golfing with a friend or getting ready to play in your club championship, you can improve your golf score and become a more competent golfer around the green by practicing a few minutes a day or week.  All you will need is your pitching wedge and some free time to hone your short game skills and start shooting lower scores. Set one up, practice and you will gain the confidence you need with the short clubs and watch your scores drop.

There is no need to agonize any longer over your golf scores when you can improve them from your own backyard.

How to Clean Your Outdoor Rug

Comment

Outdoor Rugs

Cleaning your all weather rug is a breeze. Just hose them off and let them air dry. For tougher stains, mild soap and water are all that is required. Olefin with Sunbrella fabric borders with mitered corners are easy to clean too.  For porches, verandas or busy areas of the house, spills wipe away with damp cloth and warm water. They can be washed with a water hose for heavy soiling. Most outdoor rugs are sunlight resistant, fade resistant, and non-allergenic.
