How did you finish deck so insects don't come in through floor boards? »

Smith & Vansant Architects PC Hello,
We only dealt with that on the screen porch and this was handled with screening under the deck boards.
Hope that helps!

Ronique Gibson These Palmetto wicker chairs on Pottery Barn are similar for outdoor use:

slowness I have these chairs - from Pottery barn. I just put mine outside after having them indoors for several years. I'm worried they will quickly deteriorate on our porch. They are real wicker.

I really like the color on the exterior cedar shakes and board and batten. It looks somewhat aged, how did you achieve this? I am a high end luxury builder in the SC upstate and western NC and I frequently use cedar and I would would love to know what you used. »

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Kelly Porter to Get Inspired by Winter Greens
The exterior trim on this home blends seamlessly into the natural landscape. Mid-tone and dark greens make very suitable accent colors for rustic-style houses.More: How to Pick the Right Green
added by Vanessa Brunner to Screen Outdoor Furniture From the Sun
WickerMost modern wicker furniture is made of a very durable, synthetic material that resists sun damage much better than natural wicker does. However, it requires regular cleaning, as debris and dust can get stuck in between every little woven piece. Stick with a basic mild soap, rinse and dry to prevent long-term damage and mildew growth. The sun can seriously fade wicker, so it's a good idea to cover it if it's going to be outside for more than two to three weeks. Invest in waterproof furniture covers if you're worried about long-term care. The paint on wicker may start to peel after a while as well. Remove peels with fine sandpaper and touch up the paint.
added by Pangaea Interior Design, Portland, OR to 30 Dream Decks for Lounge Lovers
This deck overlooks Lake Fairlee in Vermont. It takes me back to happy thoughts of summer camp. I can almost hear the squawking of the bluejays and the lapping of the water on the shore. Makes me want to roll up the legs of my jeans and go wading.
