{ at } home today...Day 1 of Painting

Here is the house day 1 of being primed!  It took us an entire day just to do the white part of the house below...but, no complaints here -it was a super sunny breezy day which actually made it enjoyable...Painting enjoyable? WHY yes, I find it therapeutic! I actually love to paint. I wouldn't do it for a living but you get the picture.

I am really liking the white! It's a really stark white since it's a primer but, I can totally envision the softer white.  It just makes all the greenery pop and I love the way the front door looks against it.

I am thinking of laying brick for the tiny concrete pad by the front door and the 3 little steps...I want it to feel more nantucket-ish.

day 2 my brother in-law painted the back upper side roof line 

and now on day 3 finishing the lower side back.

the weather has turned on us and has put us a little behind schedule...day 4 & 5 look like rain outs but hoping to get it sprayed completely by next week -weather permitting!

progress looks good and very pleased with the white!

what do you think of the white?
