Wow that’s a lotta look at me. Great when out of towners show up.

Don’t have that much time on my hands.

  I guess I could give directions to our house by saying, “Look for the one with the flowers all over it.”

  That’s a really nice way to think about it. I like how it looks next to our neighbor’s turquoise house.

thanks! I’m thinking our under-rennovation + serious painting overhaul of a house needs this as a present.

  Yeah, this seemed like a sweet way to say goodbye to our original 1907 siding. We wish we could keep it, but I guess over 100 years is a pretty decent run.

Wow! I’ll be over to gawk asap. Oh, and if this is, to you, a low-commitment home project, please drop by next time you run out of ideas and you are up against a deadline — I think you will find that I can offer a world of opportunities under one roof.

    Hmmm….if you’d like to make art out of changing the cat litter I’d call that a win/win.

Oops — didn’t mean to imply your beautiful project is akin to cleaning cat box. Delete! Delete!

  Hahaha. I actually asked Michael if he saw your comment yesterday because I thought it was so funny–not offensive. I’m totally not cleaning out the litter box, though, unless you have one of these:

I keep coming back to this I like it so much. Not my idea of ‘low commitment’, but love it nevertheless! ;)))

I’m so glad you like it. I know–the commitment level is relative, but we won’t live with it very long because we’re getting new siding next month.
