The old house had really bad shutters but we managed to paint them to look brand new. We also painted the black male box and light fixture.


The side yard had a fence from the neighbors , so we just added on to it at this corner.

This is the old house, probably built in early 1900 like most of the bungalows in this area. It was probably added on to and remodeled many times. We were lucky to get central air and heat and most of the windows still open! The yard has some nice bushes and flowers. We painted with three colors and then a dark green for the shutters. The house had been painted about 4 years ago so we just pressure washed. I liked the peach color, but picked a little lighter shade for the main house and darker for the bottom and lighter for the trim.

I found this swan in garage and painted it with silver tint. The flowers didnt last long in this heat. I like the opening to the house, although I wish I had a front porch.
