I Changed My Mind... 19 months ago

Did the 2nd coat on the porch floor today, and I’m not sure that it will need another. We’ll see what it looks like tomorrow. However, there are some spots on the rails that need touchups.



Back Porch part 2 20 months ago

One coat of blue and second coat on the rails. I think the rails are done, but I’m pretty sure the floor will need more than a second coat.



Back Porch 20 months ago

Got it primed today, and the first coat of blue on the rails. I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.



Shutters 20 months ago

Finally finished and replaced. The front of our house looks so great! Just the back porch and door to go.



Wouldn't you know... 22 months ago

...that the next warm weather opportunity I would be sick.



A Warm Day in January 23 months ago

We’re past the Christmas frenzy, and this week has been unusually warm. I was only able to paint yesterday afternoon, but I got the shutters pretty much finished and the back door primed. Hopefully DH can install the shutters this Sunday.



The Front is Finished 2 years ago

All done and pretty, including a nice new porch light. Now on to the back… (And another coat on the shutters.)



It's getting cold... 2 years ago

Well, I got 2 coats of blue on the front door and 1 coat on the front porch. The rest of last week was too cold to paint, but it looks like it’s going to be warm this week. Yay!

I can already tell it’s going to be so pretty. Unfortunately, I can also tell it’s going to take 3 coats of paint to look really good. We’ll see how much gets done this week.



Getting Back To It 2 years ago

Life got in the way again, but today we made a big effort. DH found a few rotten places behind the gutters, so he spent the day replacing the wood. I got the front door completely painted and the front porch primed. I also washed the shutters so they are ready to be primed. There wasn’t enough daylight to do any more. My goal is to finish the front porch tomorrow. I would like to get the shutters and back porch done by the end of the week, but we’ll see what happens.



Almost Done 2 years ago

So, we didn’t quite finish today, but we are super close. Just a little detail work to go with the white. We’ll definitely be done with that this week. Then we just have the shutters, doors, and porches to paint a pretty dark blue. Yay!
