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.

| South Side (Garage Side) . . .Day 7! |
 |
| North Side of our home. . .Day 8! |

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!

On Crooked Creek, received a new coat of paint!

ReplyDeleteI love your new color -- I do like it better than the old!
ReplyDeleteAnd 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!
ReplyDeleteI 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..
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteLove your pretty color choice.
Hi Pat! Oh, you new house color looks wonderful. Your Mister did a great job and he was swift too!
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteSo 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.
ReplyDeleteDon'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!
ReplyDeleteI 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?
