first impressions

we've been in our house almost 2 years now, and i've been meaning to paint our front door since like... the first time we looked at the house with our realtor.

 before:

(no, not our car... neighbors, ugh!!!)

so, we bought a pretty peach/yellow "cape cod" style house

and it had this random light mocha-ish front door and shutters

after:

yay, much better now, right?

a better view of what color the door was

almost finished

love it!!!

add a little Texas Tech wreath

(this was my first wreath-making attempt,

and i'm certainly not quitting my day job,

 but it was fun and i'll do better next time)

an assortment of red and black ribbons,

so-so for try #1 but not necessarily a keeper!

the door and shutters look much better black,

dont you think?

happy wednesday!
