Outdoors

Lovely photos above and below by Christopher Baker… as I would cover the whole inside of my house in wood paneling, I’d also love to cover the outside in cedar shingles and ivy.  ;)

Photographers for either of the bottom two photos couldn’t be found but I loved the simplicity of each, and the casually-formal gardens in front.

Spring Anyone?

This winter has been a particularly long one for me. Could it be having a toddler who only wants to be outside, cooped up all day?  The overload of snow, freezing rain, and ice we’ve seemed to be a magnet for? Or… maybe it’s having a new house to fix up and wanting to desperately address the exterior before anyone comes over?

Either way, I’m in a serious black-phase and have been considering painting the exterior really dark.  The only problem is we have an older stucco house, so I’m sure it’ll come out looking charred.  Not.  Good.
