We continued to take advantage for the lovely fall weather to get to many of the projects either long-overlooked, or newly-accepted, along with the usual fall maintenance around the yard and garden.
Early October also turned out to be a ridiculously busy time for the art studio, with veritable hordes (OK, possible exaggeration) of art-seekers turning up with or without notice to peruse the wares....meaning a lot of time was also diverted to keep creating pieces to replace all the bare spots on the walls!
We also tackled the kitchen, refreshing the old paint and hardware, before Jane applied a fake granite treatment to modernize the fake wood-grain laminate countertop.....and then she used that new countertop to make some really great food!
Parging continued to repair parts of the house exterior, with a fresh coat of paint coming along behind to seal up all those little cracks.
Now we just need to squeeze in some time for a bonfire or two while this weather lasts!
