{The Now} White Picket Fence

So I finally got around to snapping some photos of the white picket fence. I am excited to show it to y’all, but also a little apprehensive because the grass looks so bad right now. Beggars cant be choosers in getting a perfect photo though. Maybe in a few weeks I will update it with the beautiful winter grass we get.

I can’t even explain how happy it makes me to look out our big front window and see a bright white fence. I feel like it did a facelift on our whole. Isn’t it amazing how such a little change can change so much? Like adding a wreath to your door, or new flowers in a pot.

Heres to hoping that the yard guys don’t reck the paint job in one time of mowing the grass. The fence usually looks pretty chopped up at the bottom, and I wish there was a way to prevent this- but I don’t think there is.

So, have you guys done anything to spruce up your front yards lately? Flowers, new paint job, a Fall wreath? Let me know!

    I have a BIG job like this…I think you and your hubby should come and do my rails since you are now PROS and it should go faster the 2nd time around…right? LOL

    I love it when I get a big project done that I have been putting off. Usually the process is less painful than I had imagined it to be. I do have outdoor projects that need done (siding and paint) but those are going to have to wait. Estimate $26,000 ouch!! Maybe I will just plant some flowers 🙂

    Wow! The fence looks great! We (meaning my hubby, I was the cheerleader because I was sick) painted all the trim on our barn and shed this weekend. It made such a difference. I remember your post from last week about the fence job not being fun, and how you would rather get a more fun job done. Well my hubby painted everything and hung my new chandelier, so I was able to get not so fun and fun things done this weekend! 🙂

    So clean and fresh. There is nothing quite like a white picket fence. Worth all that hard work I’d think, but that is easy for ME to say! Are you hard at a different kind of work what with it being “spa week” popping more pimples and smooshing out more wrinkles than ever?
