The above idea comes from Crye-Leike Realtors for their Monday makeover for porches. What a pretty, contemporary porch-scape.

I also think the greenery, gorgeous pots and the striking red and white pillow collection add so much. As the folks at Crye-Leike say, this idea is a wonderful reflection of you and your summer guests.

Ever think of lighting up your potted plants? Wow, this awesome decorating idea comes from Steve at PlantLampUSA.com. This is a stunning contemporary porch. See how the plants are lit up with a soft light. Does that not create a ton of ambiance?

Steve, the inventor of these lamps, tells us that these type of lights (that attach to the flower pots) are a 110v plug-in-light. They have a mini transformer in the stand part but plug into an outlet or extension cord. You can use a plug in timer with them.

He also has a hanging basket version as well. Typically homeowners leave on the lights until midnight or 1:00 am.

We love the sparkle and ambiance that these plant lamps add to the porch in the evening. Beautiful! Now enjoy another gorgeous picture.

This photo was taken at Brown Woods Farm in Lexington, KY and is included in the beautiful book, Perfect Porches. Notice the picnic table that serves as a contemporary drinking bar. The wonderful summer flowers and basket of hedge apples are just the icing on the cake.

We love the outdoor curtains, too. Aren't they romantic?

This is just one of the hundreds of spectacular outdoor spaces featured in the book Perfect Porches by author, Paula Wallace.
