Today I painted the pre-primed beadboard underside of the new porch/steps ceiling and finally finished the new back porch/steps project!
Although the house trim is almond, I decided to keep the beadboard white to match the style and color of the kitchen ceiling that is just inside the back door. I also thought that the white might better reflect light to brighten up the area.
Overall, we are very happy with the new porch/steps. It feels like it has always been there and with the addition of the bench, faux muramado window, rain chain, mini-zen garden, and stepping stones, it fits in well with the rest of the garden.
