Font Door Paint Work

Once the reading room door was installed we had a decision to make about the exterior finish treatments of the Blacksmith Shed.  After much deliberation, it was decided that we would embrace a limited but traditional paint scheme that involved the doors and windows as well as their associated trims.  Windows, window casings, and door casings will be a soft gloss white and doors will be a black forest green.  With the exception of the roof, no other surfaces will be receiving paint.  Once the new siding greys, we may add a clear preservative but a few seasons must pass first.  The following pictures document the paint process up to the final coat of door paint:

Bondo work on some rather egregious spots.

Prime time.

Going green.

Starting to look like she's getting the lovin' she deserves.
