Oh The Suspense is Killing Me.......Show us the colors at least!!!!!!!!!!I am in the mood to do some more painting.We are completely re-doing our sons room(10) new carpet and finshing the painting and sanding as well.I want hardwood with a big rug BC we live in a old(100 yr old)farmhouse but he wants carpet. BLessings~
My guess is that you are painting the outside of your home and getting double hung windows. I think it will the red colour of the saltbox you liked. Hope you are keeping your awesome decorating style and not going....gasp....minimalist!!! LOL
I think you have something up your sleeve..Maybe a new exterior color and new older style windows..Whatever you do it will be FABULOUS..The suspense is killing me here in Pennsylvania..You guys have a great week..
An enclosed porch with French doors leading from the inside to the porch and lots of windows, the paint is for the room of course and possible the room where the french doors will be added, then you are going to rearrange the furniture and will have to paint the rooms after that task is done. Have you seen the Martha Stewart color Persimmon Red? I wanted to paint the bathroom that color, family said NO, I have a sample, will paint a piece of furniture. It is a soft pumpkin red. Have fun and hurry and let us see!

Where Did I Get My Door Box?
I receive so many comments asking me where I got my door box. So I thought I would answer the question here in my sidebar. I got my door box at The Olde Homestead in Mt. Vernon, Illinois. The lady who makes the door boxes is Tracie Hamler. She and her husband make them. They are wonderful door boxes and you will be very pleased with the quality. You can visit Tracie's website by clicking the picture of my door box.
