We call our new place “Painter Farm” because it’s what the realtor called it as we discussed putting in the application.
Here are a few snaps from around the house. A few little details.
We have two of these windows in the house, one at the bottom and one at the top of the staircase.
The view from the upstairs bathroom, looking down into the back yard and the little shed.
Jack on the screened porch. I got the little table and chairs for a song at a store closing it’s business.
The front porch lamp. The ceiling of the porch is painted “haint blue” which is said to ward off evil spirits and bugs. 🙂
This is a lamp in the downstairs foyer. I just LOVE the detail in the oak trim!
The banister on the stairs has this lovely detailing as well, so handsome!
The little boys bedroom. It has a neat shape to it like a turret style. We have two boys in each of the two rooms. Scott and I share the only room with a decent closet.
Lily came for a visit. Here you can see a bit of the built in cabinet behind them. It provides lots of china hutch type storage and is a good place for me to keep extra kitchen appliances.
My messy kitchen. I love the island center for washing dishes and the sink there. I don’t love that it’s so close to the fridge that folks use it as a place to set things from the fridge as they are getting food out.
The living room downstairs is also shaped in the “turret” style that matches the little boys room directly above it. We started off with one couch and three chairs but now have two couches and three chairs, and for the first time in forever we ALL have a place to sit!
The walls going upstairs have provided a good gallery space for my nautical photography. It was Max’s idea to put the photos here and I like it very much.
Okay that’s a little glimpse, however choppy it may be, into our little house we call Painter Farm.
Have a good week folks, and may The Lord bless you and keep you.
