Porches & Patios

A three season room or screened in porch is an extension of your home.

We were somewhere in the Middle...

...this morning someone asked me on Face Book (yes, A Primitive Place is on FB!) where we were going for our photo shoot today - east, west, north or south and I replied...somewhere in the middle... Middleborough that is! It was a gorgeous spring day here in New England as Audrey and I headed out excited to go to another photo shoot for a future issue. Donna and Tommy were as welcoming as could be. They were excited to share their home with us and we quickly learned that they both enjoy the thrill of finding just the right pieces, as well as restoring their gorgeous antique home ~ and it shows! It was a pleasure to capture it to share with everyone who reads the magazine.

How would you like to see some of the gorgeous beamed ceilings?

and how about a view of the primitive kitchen??

Well now don't be silly.... of course we can't do that!!!

 BUT I can show you some close up sneak peeks from around their home...

Kind of makes you want to see more doesn't it???

Yes???? well keeping reading....

We had a short break for lunch and Donna made a beautiful antipasto...

....and the four of us gathered around the island in the kitchen...

too enjoy the salad, some yummy bread and a few sweet treats for dessert!

After our delicious lunch, it was time for a few more photos....

..and then it was time for us to pack up our gear,  and we said our goodbyes and headed for home. Another wonderful photo shoot ~ Thanks Donna and Tommy!!

Thank you for stopping by and making APP part of your day and and please check back in a few days when we have something exciting to share with you...

Until then, prim blessings and hugs, Linda
