And....After

Here is my planter after its been painted with a lovely charcoal black color...2 coats. I had to first scrape the paint and try and get all the flakes and old paint off wherever I could. Doesn't it look great! What do you think?

Problem solved...at least for now

Thanks mamas for your advice and support and for the reminder that this isn't the end of the story. I love the image of Claire yelling under the door!

Check out these crazy dancers, called Morris dancing, who came to our farm on Sunday. They were on a tour of the area and stopped and did a show for us and our neighbors. Birch's favorite part was riding on the school bus!
