Happy Halloween!

I am so excited about tonight! This will be the first time ever that I am passing out treats. As my daughters were growing up, I walked with them house to house. The last few years, since my daughters are now adults, we have shared in the fun of a bonfire and food at my mom's home. Tonight, I will be at my own little home, with the porch light on and LOTS of candy. :)

Porch Makeover

 BEFORE-

rusty metal porch posts, moldy outdoor carpet, vertical blinds at the window, orangey,brown front door, and flaky, peeling porch swing. 



AFTER- power washed, new outdoor carpet, replaced the metal posts with wood ones in white, front door is now white too, linen curtains at the windows, removed the stick on house numbers( i want something cute and vintage), spray painted the original mailbox and porch light in oil rubbed bronze and porch swing is painted valspar's "oatmeal"..

wait till you see what i did to the swing chains.........

Front Door Makeover

BEFORE- orangey varnished front door, dirty sheers at the window and cheap brass door knobs.
