22 Ways to Turn Your Home Into a Staycation Resort

Lounging on the front porch and taking in the sights and smells of summer is one of the best treats of the season. To take this relaxation up a notch, try swaying on a swing. In addition to its serene feel, a porch swing also adds a touch of elegance and style to your curb appeal. You don't even need a porch to hang one; a deck or garden is also a great place for a free-swaying rocker.
