The lengthy gap between posts today represents the time I spent priming and painting the exterior door and window trim on my house. I actually finished the whole thing in one afternoon, second floor included.
Except, I’m not sure about the colour. I wanted something softer than the deep red-toned brown fascia that wouldn’t clash with the cream siding. I hated the dark brown trim that had been on the house when I bought it, so I selected a warm, softer, mid-toned brown, and co-ordinated it from thirty miles away … by memory.
Now that it’s all finished, I’m not entirely certain it’s working, chromatically speaking. The colour is closer to a peachy terra cotta.
Whatever. I’ve decided to give it a few years before passing judgement.
Why don’t you post a picture? Obscure the address if necessary.
My digicam broke a few days ago. Or committed suicide upon hearing of my plans….
