Day 3 of our exterior makeover

The renovation is messy but exciting, with progress made on replacing rotten planks and painting the siding in a transformative greige color.

It's day three of the exterior renovation, and things are definitely in a state of organized chaos. But it's the good kind of chaos—the kind that comes with seeing a vision come to life! The crew hit the ground running this morning, tackling two major tasks: replacing the old rotting planks and starting the paint job on the siding. We happy to finally part ways with those tired, weather-beaten, rotting planks. It's exciting to see the impact that replacing these small sections of rot has made in rejuvenating the appearance of the house.

The highlight of today was beginning to paint the siding! Witnessing the first coat of our selected color on the siding was such an exciting moment. It's exactly the "greige" shade we imagined, and it's already transforming the overall look and feel of the home.
