Inside today

Getting organized!


Sometimes things can change in a design. 
Originally I had wanted a Dutch door in the front but I had to agree with hubby that the Kijiji deal was too good to pass so we scooped it up. Now, the design started to alter. We had so much glass in the front door, so the amount of glass in the side doors increased (the front window size stayed the same as did skylight).
The issue with so much glass was what was everyone going to see? The shed is facing the road and yes can be seen by anyone going by but also did I really want to stare at my lawnmower too? The answer was no, as you can guess.
The simple answer was a small barn board wall. To display but also to help organize.



We painted everything white just to keep it bright inside.
(Ignore the tools and mess everywhere)



You can see the change in these two photos above.


It didn't take long before the potting bench was put in and another Kijiji item (the tall shelf / $45 and in awesome condition) was brought in.

A little tidier here. It doesn't last very long.

Starting to put things away for winter. Still putting shelves in too as we need them.


Here are the doors painted white with the grille put in the windows.
Top secret: we used bathroom vinyl strips to create the grille affect in the windows.

It still smells like new wood.

Still more to come...

Audiobooks and Art

I know many artists like to listen to music while they paint but I like to listen to audiobooks. I borrow from the library and its usually great but today I was three quarters through when it expired on me (my fault). When I went back in to borrow it, I had to place a hold. So I'll have to wait a week to find out what happened.  Blue Hydrangea 096 oil on canvas board 8" by 8" Click to Buy   Whenever I look at a painting I can always remember what book I was listening to. In some ways I self title them that way. This one will always be split into two but I got it finished anyway.  Not to advertise but I realize if I don't say it's a cliff hanger -  Sara Gruen - At the Water's Edge (interrupted- don't tell me how it ends) Sara Gruen - Water For Elephants
