House Painting

 It's hump day of week 4.  The painting is slowly coming along. I'm even getting used to having faces at each if my windows as I go about my day.

 All but three windows have been replaced and they are supposed to go in today.

 I never thought I could be so happy to see a window painted.

 It's a bit unnerving to see your home in this shape.  But, that is a new window right there.  Woohoo!

 What could this plastic possibly be protecting?  It's been like this for a month.  It's things like this that make me not lament the drought we are having.

These are my basement security bars,  They will look much better after they are painted.

 It's nice to gaze at a small completed area.

My husband put these up to give me something that makes me smile.

Hmmm. repainting the entire house or just the windows? I am pretty sure those security bars were made Just for you. Can't purchase those off the rack!I just read your post 2 down, I see you went to Shaker Woods... I did that show about 4 times, years ago. I love some of the structures the crafters and artist have created as their permanent booths.

Beautiful security bars!

I do wonder what that plastic does there since it barely can protect anything :-)

Have a great day!

That's enough to make me smile. A house is a lot of work. But yours can truly be called a home.

This might be the most basic of all home upgrades, but it's a vital one nonetheless. Love the job you guys did on this. Hope everything went well with this project, and I'm looking forward for updates. Cheers!
