DIY The Start..............


After living in our house for over a year the time has come! The dreaded DIY projects. As much as I know the man of the house loves me when the talk of colors and crazy design ideas start a slight eye roll happens and I am given the patience needed. So here we go.......

Project: "70s porch be gone"

In the beginning......



Yes that is brown paneling and brown stained window sills!


The only obstacle is finding a design that will include red's(the cat) and my favorite ORANGE furniture.


Then
and Now



I found the mural at www.muralsuperstor.com It was easy to set up and hang defnatly a cool way to fill a small wall! And YES it tied in my orange furnature!



It is amazing what a little blue paint, zip strip and sanding can do!
Now a great place to watch storms come in.
