Quick Exterior Update

GOODBYE BABY BLUE SHUTTERS. You'll find no quarter here.


We took advantage of the warm weather today (almost 50 degrees!) and Dave pried off all the fake, hollow plastic shutters around each window on the house while I spray painted a chair (update coming soon!). Thank goodness he took the shutters down in January, because almost each of the 14 shutters had at least one bees nest underneath it. Isn't that nice....


Much cleaner look. The baby blue really clashed with the pinkish color of the brick and kind of made us look like we were perpetually celebrating the birth of a baby boy or girl. We prefer the exterior of the house to look less cluttered like this. We might put some black shutters on some day, but trust that they WONT be plastic and they WONT be hollow, cause, you know, we don't particularly want thousands of bees living in close proximity to our windows and doors.

Hope the rest of you got a chance to enjoy the wonderful weather!
