 This is the first wall. If it wasn't hot out there now, we would continue on to the left. Obviously the green bits at the top are in the most urgent need of painting. I am going to keep the dark green, but found great inspiration in the Country Style magazine I bought recently. The house in the pic looked the same as our front door. They had reddish trim in the verandah and had the pale green/grey on the fascia board. We may switch to painting the back cooler wall for awhile. DH bought some supplies last weekend. |

Your home looks very nice from this picture. I like the iris' you have planted next to it too.

Thanks cupcake.
The left piece is an extension, so not part of the original plan. I have other glimpes of the verandah on other threads, must find them for you.
The Christmas lights I think we are taking down.
The irises have been a real blessing. I found them at a street stall, and there was one tiny flower of the left one still in the box at the end of the day. The right is more than one colour planted together, but they all match, so I am happy.
The other plants are licorice I think, lily, hebe and osmanthus, and of course a larger lamb's ear.
There is a decoration that we are putting back that goes across the triangle piece at the top.
