Painting the front door

The saga has begun.

Last night I took the front screen door off it’s hinges.  Corralling it into the garage, I placed it upon sawhorses. 

With a file in hand, I sharpened the paint scraper that was to serve as the instrument of cleansing.  Scraping off old paint in both crumbling state and in long sheets, I soon had the outer coat removed.

That was last evening.

Today was primer time and semi-gloss.  Thankfully the paint dries quickly.

Tonight the color has changed from green to white.  If you come by, you may miss the house – the sparkling shadow of beauty will engulf you!! 

Of course, I have to put the door back on the hinges.  Should be soon, I hope, I think — OK, wait a few days!!
