Porch Rocking Chairs
A Rocking Chair is the Soul of the Front Porch
Porch rocking chairs conjure up nostalgic thoughts of times spent on the front porch with family and friends.
Or, perhaps time spent reading a good book or just for watching the world go by.
Even if not used much, rocking chairs definitely add curb appeal to any home making it visually welcoming to all.
If only rocking chairs could talk!
So much a part of American culture, that porches and rocking chairs appear in many advertisements and movies.
From famous Jimmy Stewart talking to his son-in-law about marriage in the movie Shenandoah to Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino, porch rocking chairs have become an iconic American symbol.
Porch Rocking Chair Styles
Although a traditional porch rocker never goes out of style, there are many other options to consider.

More Rocking Chair Ideas
Porch rocking chairs worth their weight must also be able to withstand the elements and the material from which they are made.
You don't want your porch rockers to rot, corrode or fade due to exposure, nor do you want the joints to loosen or rust due to humidity.
Metal Rocking Chair Options
Metal rocking chairs can last a long time with minimal maintenance and care.
Whether wrought iron or powdered coated materials, metal chairs car not only comfortable but also beautiful as well.

The porch chairs at Debbie's home say "welcome" in a very warm way.
She pulled it all together with the red color in her front door, the beautiful star on the wall and the pillows on the rockers.
Debbie says, "I just love going to auctions to find old chairs and tables as well as vintage garden tools. And I love the color red in all my flowers and decor."
