Fresh Paint


The warm weather has inspired John to repaint our dog-scratched and faded front door. The color was originally called Mountain Purple (though it was blue) and it's no longer available. But with a paint chip from an unfaded sample of the original, the store's computer did a pretty good job of matching our color--we call it Wool Branch Blue.


The severely faded door to the greenhouse got a new coat, and the little table on the front porch, whose varnish was cracking, was treated to some Wool Branch Blue.

Lovely warm weather--but snow is predicted for next week. So the plants stay inside.

Such a pretty blue! Glad you could match the original! How about the bench?

We have a bunch of blue benches and, in time, they'll get refreshed too.

Feeling blue is a good thing in this case.

That's the same color as our front door and shutters. We have a blue roof too.

What a gorgeous shade of blue. It all looks very smart now.

Did you paint the porch ceiling blue, too? Or aren't you worried about haints?
