There was so much activity at our house today. We finished painting the carport, while Matt the mason cut the brick for our larger kitchen window. Progress, it feels good.
Even when time is extremely limited, we try to make it out to the house to paint. Carport wall almost done.
Priming done. Hmm, is Pewter Tankard too dark for inside the carport? It’s perfectly mid-toned for the exterior. Feeling concerned.
This must be exactly what it felt like to paint the Sistine Chapel.
Here’s what the front of the house looks like at the moment. The carport exterior looks massive and uninteresting, so we’re looking forward to supercharging it with foliage and a wall sconce.
We didn’t have much time to spend on the house today, but we did continue priming the carport interior.
I have been waiting about six months to do this. This wet, dreary, Pacific Northwest winter has kept me from my baby (my 1959 brick ranch, if this is your first time tuning in to my blog)!
Our new window and sliding glass door, which are from the Anderson 100 series in Terratone, both had unfinished wood framing that I finally got to paint today. I used Griffin from Sherwin-Williams, which turned out to be a pretty good match to the Terratone.
I pushed through the wind as long as I could, and then the rain began to fall. We did get a little priming done in the carport, though.
Finally, a day dry enough to get some work done! Today we installed these beauties from Modern House Numbers. We ordered the Palm Springs numbers in brushed aluminum. They look fantastic.
I designed this poster for a local house concert, but to protect the privacy of the hosts, I’ve edited the details for the purposes of posting here. This was a fun one, though. The project and the concert.
I have consistently envisioned my lake house bedroom with a bright, beachy color palette. AND THEN I saw this bedroom by Homepolish designer, Tali Roth, painted in Benjamin Moore’s Carolina Gull, and now I am reconsidering everything. Dangit.
