Underneath it all.... :)

I'm a window gal. I love 'em. I'd rather have them than wall space:)

Well this week my beloved old windows were all covered up

because they were painting outside (yay!!).

 We went with choice #3. Providence Olive by Benjamin Moore:)

 

Honestly I was about to go insane. It felt like solitary confinement.

And solitary and me aren't a good thing!!

 



There was ONE window left untouched...and check out the view.

 



 

Lord have mercy. When we bought this house we knew instantly

that it wasn't originally a stucco house. It just didn't make

sense with the stucco being flush with the window trim.

So we decided to do some investigatin'...

And lo and behold!!!

Feast your eyes on this gorgeousness!!

We are actually able to rescue the ceiling, and re-install the battens

on the house:)

 

 

We also discovered that these weren't the original columns either!!

(I swear a house will talk to you, if you just give it a listen)

We think maybe these were built because the others were rotted?

Who knows. What we DO know is...

 

 

They are supposed to look like my neighbors columns. A base with a taper.

The footprint from the original one was still there:)

 

Sooo,we are putting them back in:) We're both happy girls:)

 



And I KNOW all you "kitchen triangle" people will sleep soundly tonight.

The fridge got moved:)

 

What didn't get moved? My hoard. Nope. Nothin.

It's still sitting out there waiting for the tag sale fairy to

come and sort it all out:) Sooo, the ole sale ain't a happenin'

this weekend. Sorry to disappoint:(

I'm thinkin maybe the next? or next?

Ugh...I'll let ya know:)

***Oh, and Happy Birthday to the man of my dreams. The guy who makes
so much of this ol' blog happen. The one and only...
Hubby:)
