The garden bench you saw in my last post has been rubbed down, undercoated and then given two top coats of paint. It's looking fresh and new and ready for sitting on in the middle of the wild flower meadow next Spring and Summer.
We carried it round from the garage, where it had been painted, on Monday.
Almost immediately it became part of the garden again. It's a very pale grey, perhaps too pale? We'll see! It may get changed at some point. Although surrounded (we hope😊) by wild flowers and grasses it will probably look fine.
The first visitor to use it was the Robin who sings cheerfully from a tree at the top of the garden. I think he or she approves.
Take care.
Your bench looks very cheerful in its painted glory, the Robin loves it already! It probably looks really bright at the moment as you've just finished painting but in a couple of weeks it'll probably mellow a bit. 😊
ReplyDeleteThank you, yes I hope the bench will tone down and 'weather' a bit, it will look better in the Spring and Summer I hope. The robin landed almost as soon as we put the bench down and started to walk away:)
DeleteThe robin seems pleased.
ReplyDeleteHe'd been watching from a nearby tree:)
DeleteThat's a sturdy looking bench and you've painted it a pretty colour. It's a gloomy sort of day here so we're staying indoors in the warm. Hope everything is going well for you both.
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda, it is certainly an indoors day today:)
