Exterior Paint Before & After

Have I ever told you how much Mr. and I love our neighborhood?  We do!  It is made up of mostly 1930's houses that all started with basically the same footprint.  Over the years, new home owners have come along and put their marks on each house making them their own.  Friendly neighbors are always out walking, running, and gardening. Children ride bikes and scooters.  We couldn't have asked for a better place to raise our children!

Another thing that I love about our neighborhood is the charm.  Most everyone takes pride in their home and garden which makes me proud to call this little neighborhood home.  You can see a few front doors from the neighborhood on this post.  My friend Laura recently painted her exterior and I love it!  She agreed to let me share pictures on the blog so here goes.

This is Laura's house before it was painted.  Even then it wasn't bad - it just wasn't Laura.

Here is the after.

And here is a close-up of the front door.  Those must be new house numbers too?  Love!  Because I know someone will ask, Laura was sweet to share the paint colors with me.

Exterior brick - SW Summit Gray

Front door - SW Anjou Pear
