Wish me luck...I will need it!

Our weather won't cooperate either! For every day of sun, we have five days of brrrrrr and clouds!
I too need to spruce up our curb appeal. Good luck! Wouldn't it be nice if the weather would cooperate for us all? The forecast is for snow here on Sunday - ahhh!

Hi, Your post is sooo great! I love it..especially the end comment! i vote for the second house ( has more windows=more light) with the arched door from the first house! my front door is actually Yellow! I love it but I could post someone else's door to show my dream door!!! (too bad that door doesn't lead to Hawaii!!!)
I will be back! I will have to look up fox lake.
With Kindness,
mary
The houses you are using for inspiration are very cute indeed. I really like the yellow, the porches, the white picket fence. I know that if anyone can perform a transformation it's you, but I know it must be daunting to think of what you want and where to start. Thanks for sharing your plans.

Sounds like the weather here. It's the middle of April and we had snow AGAIN! Love the "after" photos, how pretty! Have fun =) Amazing what some paint and flowers can do... Some of our landscape blocks need some MAJOR help - LOL! It all needs redone at our house... Happy Spring, Debbie

Hello again! I don't see an email link on your blog and I need to get your mailing address for the Pink and Green swap. Can you email me at daisykins514@yahoo.com please? Thanks.
Thank you for your sweet note on my blog this evening! =) Yes, we are in the middle of a Nor'Easter and I hear we may get 5 inches of rain overnight and have horrible flooding. This is one time I am glad I don't live TOO close to the ocean! =)
I can see it... just keep doing things little by little and someday you'll be amazed:-)
Of course, the weather is a problem... !! But today's looking pretty nice:-)
By the way, I think we're almost neihbors... Fox Lake is near Chicago, righ?
Arlene I have that same picture of the yellow house on my dream board. Great minds think alike.
very cute post! I too am trying to spruce up our home's exterior. It started as a pumpkin orange stucco house! yuck! I am slowing getting somewhere, but it has been at least six months since we started! I wish you speedy success on your project!
