DIY inside and OUT

As Windsor freezes over--literally--it is fun to look back to Summer. The DIY element doesn't end with inside projects but seems to be DIY everywhere projects.

McKay posted a Thursday Thought on Sharing 26 Main a few weeks ago and many people commented about how much they loved the wrap around porch that used to exist on the home. We love it too and would certainly love to recreate it at some point. But before that would even be possible, we had to do something with this...

For those of you who live in the Northeast and know just how FAST foliage can grown, this will make you laugh, but in a matter of weeks your house can, in fact, be overtaken. So in order to take that side of the house back and expose that side of the house, we took it to this place...

Now we have a clean slate for whatever comes next. It is such a striking building with or without the wrap around porch. Someday there is another DIY project for us there--anyone a porch builder?

Yes - the building itself is stunning enough. You could put beautiful plants and and sweet smelling gardens instead of the porch :) xo
