House Project Update

*Disclaimer- I'm terrible at taking pictures. Bear with me!


This morning we went to Lowe's and bought the front door/shutter paint and a light fixture for the back door. I liked the one we bought for the back door better than the one we had on the front door so Andy switched the old one to the back door and the new one out front. The picture on the left is the back door and its ugly light bulbs.
Here is the old light fixture with the front door (that is now in the back).


Here on the left you see the back door with a nice looking fixture! Looks much better than the plain light bulbs!


Now on the right you see the front door with the cute new light fixture! Thanks for switching them for me, Andy!!










I painted the front door today! It looks good! Andy is putting the hardware back on the door in this picture! He did NOT want to smile. He doesn't like working in the heat. He had been working outside on the lights and all, but I sweetly reminded him that he is inside air conditioning here. :)

So, update on Lowe's wishlist: new oven, plantation blinds for boys bedrooms, and a new back door. We're doing good!

You are so funny! Glad you have something else to focus on now! Curtis and I bought those faux-wood plantation blinds @ Lowes a few years ago for our whole house and you can get them pretty cheap. They look like the real wood ones and would be good for the boys room! We also got a new front door and back door from Lowes last summer and were very pleased with them. Isn't it fun doing projects around the house??

Sometimes it's just the little things that can make all the difference. You are so lucky to have someone who can do all of those handyman tasks.
