I did it! Sort of…

mess

After years of saying I was going to paint my door red I finally did it!

I decided to do it while my husband was gone for 6 weeks.

I like projects when he is gone.

Sometimes…

Maybe I just like the idea of a project.

When I actually start it that is another story.

We had a beautiful week of under 90 temps and I knew I had to seize my chance!

My mom gave me this great idea to keep the bugs out!

I was just going to leave my door wide open for 3 days…

red

I used Olympia brand paint and was not all that happy with the coverage.

It would have been worth it to me to get a brand that would have taken less coats.

I do love the color though!

I did three coats of paint and it still needs another one!

I was out of nice days though so it will have to wait.

Which translates into, never going to happen.

My new beautiful red door is making my porch look a little shabby…

Maybe I will paint it!

I should get to it in 5 years or so…

The porch might look shabby because someone(maybe me) tried to pull it down with a garden house and a vehicle…

Nope, I am sure it just needs some paint!
