Today we can finally say the barn construction is complete. After breaking ground (not to mention our backs) in April 2012, the last pieces were just put into place.
.
.
Said pieces being soffit under the eaves. For years they had been open…
.
.
But now they’re boxed in, vented and painted.
.
.
And also impossible to photograph without massive sun reflections.
If I had my druthers, I’d finish off the porch ceiling as well….

But for some reason the husband draws the line there.

I think it’s because people compliment us on the new paint job… the one I wanted and he didn’t. It ticks him off everyone loves it and he has to take his revenge where he can.

No rocking chair on the porch?!?!

We’re not the rocking chair types. But the furniture will go out shortly.

Maybe when the bar offers outdoor dining.
It looks very good.

Who would have thought that a barn to store your hubs salvaged crap, ahem…I mean, vintage items would have turned from storage to Barn Bar?

Awesome! Now let’s hope a certain evil squirrel doesn’t know how to strike a match and start a fire.

It is so darn lovely! Tell him to finish off the porch ceiling and paint it light blue. Let me know how that works out for you.
Nine years? Why the rush?

It was a nights and weekends project. We did most of the work ourselves…. which I would never do again!

Can’t say I even knew what a soffit was before reading this.
