Spring is in the air at the Hardy Smith House

With most of the cold, chilly nights at the Hardy Smith House behind us, we can now enjoy the birth of new life that welcomes the start of spring. This has been the first week where days have been in the 70s with sunshine. Time to think about planting and preparing the yard for the long, hot summer season ahead.

We are making slow but steady progress inside the Hardy Smith House. The 'Gone With The Wind' room is almost ready for painting! All the priming, caulking and repairs are nearing completion. We decided on Victorian era colors..deep, rich and vibrant. We are almost decided on the color scheme but will withhold speculation until we are 100% decided. Once the painting is completed, work will begin on the flooring. Wallpapering of the room will be done at sometime in the future. Window treatments in the room will be going up this season.

The next room on our to do list will be John's office. The walls are in excellent condition. The flooring, windows and trim need work. Thanks for visiting my blog and keep checking back as the restoration effort continues on the Hardy Smith House.
