The summer of projects

I never liked the yellow house color. I was VERY excited when Steve agreed to paint the house this summer. Then the actual project arrived, specifically painting trim, and I am wavering in my enthusiasm.

The new color? Love it!

The process we are in the middle of to finish the project? I don't love it. Trim is not a fun thing to paint. It just isn't. Being in awkward positions high on a ladder that isn't quite stable... gives me the shivers. It's the price I must pay for my pretty house though. I know I'll appreciate it more having done it myself, well with a lot of work on Steve's part too ;) A lot.

Here's the latest photos of our home improvement project.


Gettin' ready


The transformation begins

Break for lunch!


Clean up the supplies


My worker bee, very dirty from painting!


End result. *sigh* so much more clean and crisp :)


And changing paces a little bit, the beautiful shelves in our shed. All that's left is hanging the door :)
