Visit Tam at The Gypsy's Corner for more TOMT..
This past week we have been busy preparing for the coming holidays getting the garden cleaned off, and the porch roof painted... when we chose the nice paint color it showed itself to be a lovely warm nutty shade of brown, but alas when it went onto the roof it appeared to be a pumpkin orange!
When we went back to Home Depot the sales clerk told us it would darken up with another coat so Saturday, Lynn braved the roof again and delivered another lovely coat of paint!
Can't say that I see much difference.... now this roof looks great for Thanksgiving... but I fear a clash of hues come December... a friend suggested that we just go ahead and celebrate our love for Virginia Tech football and paint alternating stripes of maroon with the orange! That is an idea!
So now I have a small delemma... whether to celebrate our Thanksgiving turkey in the sunroom this year like we did last year...
Or take it back to the dining room like years past...
Either way, I'm sure it'll be a wonderful celebration. We have so much to be thankful for this year! Love you and we'll be thinking of you on Thursday! Enjoy the loong weekend with Dad!
