We've managed to be quite busy around the house while I've been away from this little blog, so I'll be preparing some posts in the next week or so to show you what we've been up to.
Thanks to my brother, our shed has finally been painted! I decided what colour I wanted to paint the shed a while ago, and finally managed to track it down in Homebase recently. I decided on Coastal Mist by Cuprinol as I thought the pale blue shade would bring some much needed colour into our garden and liven up the drizzly view we have out of our back door for much of the year!
As I said, despite the rainy weather, my lovely brother painted the shed for me while he was staying with us a few weeks ago - he even took Torin out with him so he could "help"! Thanks Ad! Don't they look sweet together!
This is what it looks like now - a little different!
I'm so pleased with it. It's lovely and sunny here today, but even in the rain it really does brighten up the garden.
I decided to paint the hinges white, mainly because I had some paint left over from when we painted the drainpipe on the front of our house (white drainpipes look so much better than faded grey when your house is newly painted white!) and I also thought that black would look too harsh against the blue. What do you think - do you like the white?
I hope it's sunny where you are today!

I discovered your blog a while ago and keep popping back to see how the garden is coming along! I love the blue of the shed it is such a pretty colour and I definitely think the white is better than black. Your garden is looking great after all your hard work.
oh but this is lovely - so lucky to have garden space!
Thanks both of you! Such a shame we've had such rubbish weather - we've hardly been outside recently!
