All Hands On Deck (or toes)

 This is a picture of our Little Cottage.
We are between the two big trees.
I took this picture from across the street 
so you could get a good perspective.

We are getting ready for visitors from Boise, 
(which means 40 little toes and 20 big toes).
Because our Little Cottage is so small, 
we needed to come up with more room.
The deck was a perfect place to expand for the Summer.

Except, the wood was full of splinters!
 Tom and I got busy and applied this heavy duty paint on top.


It turned out beautiful.
Bring on the big & little toes!

  7. Christine,
    Your cottage is so beautiful! We have been working on the landscaping where my inlaws live and are in process of adding a fence (to keep the neighbor's kids out of the yard). I pray you have a wonderful visit with Kimmy and her family!

  8. It looks wonderful. What kind of paint did you use? (If you don't mind emailling at wordsonwheels@live.com, I really would like to know, not just being chatty.)

    I know you are looking forward to filling the Little House with toes!

  12. Home comings . . .
    I look forward to photos of this special visit. Having just spent 6 days with our kids in 1056 square feet of house I empathize with how "tight" it will be. Thanks goodness for decks and porches.
