A White Farmhouse with a Metal Roof . . . Classic!

We have finally arrived at painting the house.

Below, the last remaining "Bee" side underwent siding repair and replacement.


Below, old paint removed.





Below, painting the house white. 








Below, the back porch ceiling. The trim, shingles, and porch ceilings are painted in a SATIN finish.  The clapboards are a FLAT finish. 


Below, the front.  We discovered in the 1942 picture that the front gable trim was a half-circle, and we restored this trim detail.


Beautiful!
