House is Done!

So the outside of the house is done. What do you think?



I took these pictures at about 6:30 in the morning to try and get a better idea of the color. It's still not coming across well in the photo, but it gives you the idea. It's a deep green with black doors and shutters and a creamy white trim.

We put in new light fixtures, replaced the door hardware (doorknob, deadbolt, kick plate and house numbers), and put in a new doorbell. I think it looks really nice. We only need to do one more thing and that is paint the bottom of the doorframe the same color as the house. For some reason the painters painted it white, but we think it would look better being green.

We've had some setbacks on the inside and are still working on that. We'll get there - eventually!

Looks like there's something missing in your front yard.....where are the shrubs, trees and flowers????

LOL...we go in for the "no maintenance" landscaping. Our neighbor even mows our front yard for us!

wow. Looks great. I can't remember what color it was before. Hard to imagine it needed to be painted already. I still remember visiting when it was still being built.
