One of our big improvement projects on the farm this summer was giving our shed a facelift.  As we continue to transition from being a corn/soybean farm to a flower farm, we are looking for other ways to use our shed.  Since we don’t have the large farm equipment any longer, we now have a lot of space to work with.  The first thing we did this summer was to give the shed a much needed paint job.

The first step was to give the shed a good cleaning.

A good primer was applied next. (Notice the lovely zinnias and sunflowers!)

What a difference!

We went with bright white with a silver roof.  I love it!!!  I am thinking of adding a bit of color by painting a barn quilt pattern on the shed.  That will be a project for next spring!  Remember when I said that I always wanted to open a small antique/craft shop.  Well I think there just might be a space in the shed that will work perfectly!!!  More exciting plans for Idylwood Farm!

Thanks for stopping by!!!  Happy Fall!!

Until next time,

Pat
