Outside Home Improvements

My contractor which is me, myself and I have been working on the outside of my house. This first picture is how it started out. You can click on images to make bigger.

Next it was painted a brown, or should I say the logs were stained a dark brown!

This is what it looks like now. I painted the shutters around my windows…..

and I made one door, I’ve got to make another yet…. I also swept off the front porch as I had sawdust all over the place! I forgot to put away my broom! ;-)

I put a different little shutter on this kitchen window. I have some herbs setting on the window sill.

I got the outside chimney painted.

On the inside I put some trim around my front door.

I have some little gourds I’m going to string up and hang inside. I haven’t done much else to the inside yet. I had to work on the outside while my contractor was free! I’m hoping to be moved in by this summer!
