Following up on my article about our household renovation ideas (or deficiency-thereof, is extra like it), I required to share additional details on how the new types could possibly influence our home’s exterior. Additional particularly: the front façade.
To be trustworthy, sharing the present exterior of our home pains me pretty a bit. Other than owning our 130 12 months outdated brick repainted very last calendar year, it is been sorely neglected as we have usually had plans to deal with it and didn’t want to sink a lot into it until finally we could do it right…

Funnily adequate, our exterior has been a bit of an shame for us for some time – a typical situation of the shoe cobbler’s small children. Emotion fed up with our lacklustre curb attraction, final summer season we ended up *this near* to going full steam ahead on some important entrance landscaping upgrades when our contractor backed out at the last second for personalized motives. We have been fairly bummed out about it at the time, but I realize now that the universe works in mysterious means. If we had gone with our authentic ideas and invested in our entrance landscaping (such as a new walkway) we would have had to maintain the locale of our existing front door and in no way could have finished up below. Evidence when once more that items come about for us, not to us. A lesson I’ve uncovered time and time all over again. Happy accidents for the get!
