Before & In Progress
So our exterior facelift project is a work in progress, but we're starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.By popular demand... Here's a bit of a visual update.
Here's a BEFORE shot. Not really fair, because the grey stucco gunk and the bare wood you see were added *just* before the stucco coating happened - it's not like we've been living like this. But it's a BEFORE shot just the same. It just makes it more dramatic (hehe).
And here's an IN PROGRESS shot. Note the blue trim, and all the boards that are currently bare wood or painted the same colour as the stucco - these will all be turning white in the very near future (in fact, Geoff was starting on it this afternoon).
I am *so* excited to see it finished... The exterior was the one really sore point that we didn't love about the house when we bought it - and the one thing that really doesn't look like anything we would ever have chosen. This work we're doing now makes it feel like ours, and it makes me feel kind of warm and fuzzy. I love the feeling of HOME.

Very nice!
That's a super cool house -- love all those neat windows in the front.
*sigh* I knew we were your blogging friends for a reason (okay, well many reasons, but this is just one of them). What a great color of stucco :)
Love it!!!
