Lower porch is just about complete

Found a really cool hanging chair and a hammock to add to the lower deck. I still have some more things to get but it’s coming together nicely

6/12 Edited to

Creating a comfortable and inviting outdoor space can truly transform the way you enjoy your home. From personal experience, adding a hanging chair and hammock to your lower porch instantly elevates its appeal and functionality. These pieces not only provide a cozy spot to unwind but also add a charming aesthetic that makes the area more welcoming. When selecting a hanging chair or hammock, consider durability and weather resistance, especially if your porch is exposed to the elements. Materials like woven rattan or weatherproof fabrics ensure longevity and easy maintenance. Installing sturdy hooks or using a strong stand is crucial to safely support these seating options. In addition to comfort, these furniture choices encourage spending more time outdoors, whether reading a book, sipping your morning coffee, or enjoying sunset views. Adding cushions and throws can personalize the setup further, making it even more inviting. Finishing touches like ambient lighting, potted plants, or a small side table can enhance usability and style. With these elements combined, your lower porch becomes a perfect retreat — a blend of relaxation and aesthetic charm that complements your home’s atmosphere. If you’re planning a similar porch makeover, embrace the process gradually by sourcing pieces that resonate with your style and comfort preferences. It’s rewarding to see the space come together, one thoughtful addition at a time.

One of the hardest areas to target are your lower abdominals. Often times these muscles grow weak from sitting a lot and having tight hip flexors/low back. Overtime this can lead to abdominal separation and cause your organs to stick out more than usual! Yes, as women it is normal to have your

For me one of the hardest areas to tighten and target has always been my lower abs. These muscles are often weak and neglected as well. Having strong lower abs not only looks really good, but also can help with things like low back pain. Here is my go-to lower ab workout⬇️ 1. Toe taps x20 2. Gl
