Oh my, what is that crazy beautiful wife of mine doing now! Why she's painting the entire house black, but no fear ya'll, that was her plans all along. The black will act as a base coat, followed by some brown and a white dry brush over certain areas to give it that old and worn look .... well, at least that is her plans anyway. 😄 I am confident Babette knows exactly what she is doing. Many a time in the past I had to learn the hard way, not to question her artistic talent or thought process; the woman definitely knows what she is doing, and her projects always turn out looking great.
Also on today's to do list was to start the building process for the stairway leading up to the front porch. Babette drew out the plans for the type stairway she wanted, and then I was off to my little workshop ... the garage, to cut out the pieces needed to make her design fall into place. It was a relatively easy, and simple plan. What did I tell you, don't question her design ideas; they almost always turn out looking good. With a couple extra add on's, or tweaking if you will, and the end piece turned out looking pretty darn good. All that is left is to add paint, brick, or fake looking slate/concrete for steps, and this baby will be ready to go on to the next phase of this remake.
So with today's work complete, here is where we now stand. There is still a lot to do, but it's coming along great and will soon be ready to display in our house .... WE HOPE! 😁
