Painting anyone?

This is MOSTLY what I've been up to for the past week-Painting!! I have a 25/25 rule, as long as it looks good from 25 feet away at 25 miles per hour-it's all good!! With Jeff in New Hampshire I'm here holding down the fort and attempting to make our house look more appealing to the average homeowner. Mulch and hostas will follow as soon as I get the front done and won't be dragging ladders or scaffolding over all the green stuff that has fought for life the last 25 years that we've been working on this place.


Here's a closer picture of the colors.....can't figure out the colors for the little triangle pieces in the corners. The underside is a light green, the post a dark and the porch floor will be a medium green. I thought I paint the post on the balls the dark green and the actual balls the light green. Do you think it will give the illusion of the balls floating??



If you have any color ideas on the porch peak colors or the little triangles, let me know!! Zoom in on other pictures to see the color combo's that we have available.
I have done some quilting and have some pictures to share. I am heading to a sewing day with my friend Rhonda and some quilters from the Yahoo Group-Quilting in Indiana. Since I won't be totally exhausted I'll work on getting those posted later today.
Fun Stuff: I purchased some Panto's this week and I'm planning on practicing on those very soon. I can't wait to get started!!
Thanks for keeping tabs on me! Don't forget to come back and see the quilt pictures!!
Headed off for a day for ME!!!! (no paint brushes allowed for the next 24 hours)
