Lighten Up...

Made a real change in the colour scape around lower sublovia (home). After looking at dark brown for so many years it is a pleasing change. The colour scheme is evolving with my better half's help and finding more miss tints at the General Paint store.  
Here we are Power wash, Painting  and Done
All Decked out with details. 
Copper 'March to your own Drummer', freshly painted chair, Mooseport Sask. Stained glass, 
1970's owl I bought it in North Van. (the lady said it cost $75)
 and freshly painted metal shelf. 
    Everything is so clean, the blueberries are awesome, Wendy's flowers are looking great!
More Flowers and a Happy Bee so Bee Happy on this fine day!

    Wow, that is a huge transformation. The colour of the house goes so well with that stained glass piece. It looks great - so do your flowers.

    Hi Rob - the bumble bee heading toward your purple flowers looks huge. Great redo on you office exterior. Notice the porch is redone too - very inviting. The grey paint looks terrific. Blue berries look ready. Mine got eaten by the raccoons.
