A Painted House II: The Saga Continues
Since my Victorian house is on the National Register, I want to be a good steward for my painted lady. I want to take good care of it while I am the owner. That is my responsibility as it is a treasure.
And yet. I want to take the house into the 21st century. Keep in mind Victoria, our inspiration here, was a rocking babe. She had one long and prosperous reign.
So my color choices are a departure from the normal. From the everyday. But I think they really kick the house up a notch. It's jumping off the curb now.
But, seems a woman came up to tell the painters that she hated the color choices.
I asked them, "Was it a cranky, old, crotchety lady?"
They said it was.
I said, "Well, that's exactly the type of people we want to hate it."
What a fabulous house! I've always adored Victorian architecture. It's beautiful.
