Painting at the Duck

I spent a couple of days at the Duck...days with a paint brush in my hand. i got a second coat around the front door and then decided the rest of that 'brick' needed to be brown also.

The 2 free quarts of brown did around the door and the corner. then i had to go buy a gallon of paint.


This is the south side


And here is the north side. ignore that rotting window sill. LOL  i think i better replace that this year instead of next. when you look at the top of that corner it is a darker brown than the bottom. when he mixed my paint.....i wound up with a different color....even though the name of the color was the same.  so around the door and the side of that top corner piece is darker than the rest. i didn't have enough paint to go over it again....i used all i had. so i will live with it for now....i am thinking it is ok .... if not....then next spring might be more painting.


I spray painted the inside of this washtub. i have plans for it


Then i spray painted this light fixture. the light fixture will go inside the washtub and it will all hang in the laundry room ceiling. there are glass globes for the light.


I am hoping when i go back to the Duck next month that it will be cool enough to bring my hubby along so he can hang the light for me and do a couple other projects that i have in mind for him.

Progress is slow right now but i am waiting to get on the schedule for window installing and drywall. hopefully still this year.

Once i get some drywall....then some fun painting can begin. but i guess that will be next year.
