The majesty (and the God damn miracle I’m not divorced) that is the completed baby barn remodel.
And yes even though it’s as small as a shed, there was a horse living in it before we moved in, so it’s a barn.
A baby barn.
And I have the hay holder thingies to prove it.
Please note ‘hay holder thingies’ may not be the correct equine term, but I was born in Jersey. The only thing I know about horses is who placed in the fourth at Belmont.
We started with this….
And finished with this….
Looks a little better than before, eh?
No comments on the empty garden bed, that has yet to be redone.
Before….
After…
Before….
After….
And to think it only took us a 10 mere months.
Which shouldn’t be a surprise.
We started it’s larger father in 2012…. and haven’t really finished that yet either.
Yup.
That’s our motto.
River's world..... 
If you ever want to part with that “hay holder thingie” I’ll pay shipping and handling. ***I’ve been meaning to get one

I could use that as a she shed. A writer’s shed.
It’s gorgeous.

A huge improvement indeed River, indeed. So y’all didn’t want to add that “extra” space the original baby barn had before the renovation? Or would that have taken longer? lol

I’m not really sure why he didn’t add that extension back. Lord knows he has enough junk to fill it. But it was his choice to leave it off.

Well, sounds like a good thing for you, and bad news for the big barn since y’all cleaned it up a bit for more junk…uh antiques, lol.

I’ve come to the realization it does not matter how much space he has… he WILL fill it.

It’s a proud, bouncing, baby…BARN! I forget, what did you name him? her? it? I really think you need a she shed next. You know, so that you have somewhere to store your chicken boots when you get them. 🙂 Mona

I’ve heard that a hotten has tots, but I didn’t know a barn could have babies. Now that you have dispelled that misconception, may your barns have many more babies, and may your neighbor’s trees have many more houses.

Amazing before-and-after comparison.
Love the double-Z door design (although I might not if I had too much wine and were standing too close). If you do name Baby Barn, a name that starts with Z would be fitting.

Fantastic job. I wouldn’t begin to know where to start with a project like that. Oh wait! I do know: by making a call to a carpenter and pulling out my checkbook. I’m always so impressed that people know how to do stuff like that.
One thing though: what will you blog about now?!?!

I would have loved to call a carpenter, but the husband never lets me. He thinks he can fix or repair anything. Some times he can, some times it gets interesting.
As for blog topics, I never run out. Much to the dismay of my readers.
