My blog is focused on what I saw, heard about, or encountered during my day. I ZOOM IN on things I find particularly interesting, beautiful, or humorous. My interests overlap and mesh in the fields of interior design, rehab, photography, architecture, color, and anything painted. Throw in salvage, bargain hunting, recycling and that summarizes what you are likely to find on this page.
Please excuse the digression but I found more pictures from the "early days" and wanted to post this one of the back porch as it appeared when I purchased the house.
To me this is always the point of relief. The decision to make a change can be reversed, but once you reach this stage there is no turning back. No more "should I?" or "shouldn't I?" Now I have to make this happen.
This was a major exterior project that turned out to be a great addition to the living space off the kitchen. Many family events spilled into this added space. It is still a lovely place to browse through the latest shelter magazine, hold a yard sale, or chat with a friend over a cup of tea. (A previous post shows you the next stage of completion.)
