Mark Twain House Bark!
The Completed Look . . . Day 15! |
New trim color of Almond Oil accents the windows and doors!
New hue. . .Almond Oil vs the past hue of Almond Paste! |
"Mr. Ed" did all the painting ~ by himself!
I offered to help.
His reply was," I don't like the way you paint!"
"Really?", I replied.
His response, "You paint everything black or white!"
I must admit. . .he' s correct.
The East Side of our home. . .Day 5! |
South Side (Garage Side) . . .Day 7! |
North Side of our home. . .Day 8! |
The back of our home freshly painted. . .Day 10! |
Since he had 31 days to complete the job,
I didn't allow "Mr. Ed" to paint on the weekends!
The West Side with the deck. . .Day 10! |
Not only did he complete all the painting
and the trim painting around the doors and windows;
he also replaced all the screens to the 10 windows in the house!
Even the Garden Shed,
On Crooked Creek, received a new coat of paint!

Pat, it looks amazing. He did a fabulous job and so fast too. The new screens are always a bonus also. Really love the new color. Hugs, Marty
I love your new color -- I do like it better than the old!
And all of that done in such a short time -- congratulations to Mr. Ed!
And I love the name of the color -- what a clever name!
Pat it looks wonderful!
I love the new color and your little shed is so cute! your husband must have worked hard to accomplish all that in 15 days. i love seeing open windows--- a rarity here it's usually so hot
That looks great Pat.. Love the new color..
I do have to say, now I'm nervous lol.. I've had mine sw universal khaki for 6 years and we decided this spring to switch over to a deep sage green.. seeing yours so pretty in bark makes me wonder why I want to change colors :-)
Oh, gosh...looks like a new house. He really did a nice job.
Love your pretty color choice.
Hi Pat! Oh, you new house color looks wonderful. Your Mister did a great job and he was swift too!
I think my blogging problems have been fixed! Thanks for popping in to see me.
be a sweetie,
shelia ;)
Love the new color! It looks updated and fresh. Nothing like a new coat of paint to make a house feel appreciated. My sweet hubby painted ours just recently, and I mostly watched.
So I know how much work it was for you two. :) Happy Weekend~
Pat, your hubby did a great job...and even painted the shed, too.
Don't you just love how a new, fresh paint color perks everything up?
Nice job...and now I know how to get out of painting...black or white, huh? :)
Pat, What a MAN is right!!! Love the cowboy hat! It is my husband's goal to become a cowboy... or a pirate!
I love the new color too. Very warm! and they work so well with the stone.
I had to laugh at your cowboy's comment about you painting everything black or white. Me too!
Now that he is finished this huge project I have one question.... DO YOU RENT HIM OUT?
