Porches Make Sun
Rooms In Summer

Porches should be as attractive
as possible since they replace hv-
ing rooms in many homes during
warm weather, says Anna Bieb-
richer, Ohio State University ex-
tension home furnishings specialist.
Rugs or mats add color and
cheerfulness as well as protection
for the porch floor, Miss Biebrich-
er points out. These and other
porch furnishings should be resist
ant to moisture and sunlight. Sc
lect ones that are easy to clean,
too, she adds.
Homemakers choosing porch fur
nishings should consider colors that
blend with the house color and
with the out-of doors scene. Plants
on the porch also help develop the
color scheme and give interest to
the porch living center.
Shelves on the porch are handy
for magazines, children toys or
games and they may add decora-
tive touch too. In addition, they
may make the porch safer by help
ing keep objects off the floor
where someone might fall over
them.
