Numbers in the House

A few weeks ago, I made a sign that said Swinging Bridge Road and I thought I’d put it with the numbers “4457” which is my street address.

Letters and Sign

I still don’t know where the Swinging Bridge sign will go although I have a few ideas. I do know, however, that I’m not pairing it with the house numbers because they’ve headed down a different route. I found a board in Mike’s shop and spray painted it red. Actually, Mike, who is retired and has a habit of hijacking my projects yanked my spray paint from me and did it since I wasn’t doing it to his satisfaction. We then (okay, he did that, too!) attached the letters to the board. First thing this morning, before I went for a walk, ate, went to work, etc., I checked on this project to see how it looked. It took forever to dry. It wasn’t quite dry when I took this picture, but I ever-so-carefully took it out and sat it on the front porch so I could get a picture.

Here’s a close up…do you like it? I do!

number 2

This was going in my fancy garage that is all clean and organized (I’m so proud…read about this here!), but I like it so much I’m either going to put it in our home office or in the guest bathroom — right above the commode!! Really leaning toward hanging it above the commode. Just so whomever is doing his or her business knows exactly where that business is taking place.

Above the commode? Or in the home office?

number 3

I have to go out and pull weeds. Hope your week has started off well!!

    I too live with an all knowing spray paint authority. I have to sneak if I want to do it myself. However, I confess I frequently let him take over, because he really can get a better finish with it — but I’m better with the paint stripper.

    I’m not sure about putting the numbers over the commode–somebody might forget which number they went in for!!

      Hi Judy, AKSPA (All Knowing Spray Paint Authority)…they are ending up in the garage! He had smudged the paint on the black letters, so he wants to put them in the garage. I read an article about living together after retirement and the adjustments that occur….we’re still adjusting!!! He’s hijacking everything I do!!
