nellieduclos Thank you, Catherine. I live in CA & my daughter is our designer(NKBA, ASID, CGBP) so I am looking for 'green" alternatives for our extensive remodel which includes kitchen/baths/front porch.

Potted plants - What are the names of the potted plants? I love the tropical vibe and I never find what I see in pics at the local nuseries »

Lynne Davis I am sorry but we do not have the names of the plants. Perhaps you can check with your local nursery and ask about tropical plants that will do well in a covered area in New Jersey.

how thick are the bluestone treads and edge pieces? »

Like · Comment · 8 months ago

Milieu Design If done correctly, the treadstock used for the treads and any pieces that have the over-hang should be at least 2" thick
The infield can be of a regular stock, but the thicker stuff for the outside and treads is not only structurally better, but looks stronger as a design element too.

charlottegirl Try Lantern & Scroll www.lanternandscroll.com I bought a similar one from there recently, and it was about $300. They were so great and easy to work with. Oh, and they are all made in the USA. Cheers!

What Houzz contributors are saying:

added by Laura Gaskill to Ready Your Home for Fall to Savor the Season More

9. Tidy the porch. After a season's worth of sandy feet tramping back and forth, your porch deserves a good cleaning. Sweep away sand, clean the front windows and door, check porch lights and add a few extras like hurricane lanterns or autumnal potted plants.

added by Becky Harris to Houzz Tour: Renovations Modernize a 1970s New Jersey Colonial

AFTER: Columns and sidelights give the entry a classic presence; the porch roof provides protection when the owners are fumbling for keys in the rain. The French door and sidelights let in natural light.
