The Painted House

All AJ was waiting for was a special ladder to finish painting the side of the house... it had been a little under two years since he and his friend Brian painted it initially but these awkward eves never got done because the kind of ladder he needed was one that clipped on to the top of the house. Here are some before photos:



Notice the tiny unpainted part in the top left of this photo taken Memorial Day weekend:


Here is the after, painted in Martha Stewart's Cumulus Cloud:




Isn't it always nice to see the before and after side by side?


Any painting projects for you lately?

  1. Looks so good! I love the color. We painted our house a few weeks ago and still have to paint all of the soffit around the entire house :( yuck! But of course, I'm planning a laundry room makeover in the mean time...because that is soo much more fun! lol

  2. We must paint our house this summer! It needed it when we moved in 2-1/2 years ago and we still haven't gotten to it. But, I am really hankering to paint some furniture. I've been scoping out chalk paint options and "pinning" painted furniture ideas like crazy!!! Have you tried any of the chalk paint on interior furnishings yet?

  4. I so much prefer the look of painted wood over vinyl siding, but we have a cape cod with the same awkward roof. I have been thinking about giving up and putting siding on. I would love if you shared some in progress pics of your dear husband painting. Maybe he is up for an entire post about it? PLEASE...
