Spent a couple of days this week painting my backyard fencing. 3L of paint down and I’ve still got the exterior of the driveway gates and another fence to go 😭
I finally finished painting everything outdoors after lots of indecision on the external fencing colour. Started with black then went to Botanical Retreat (greeny/blue) but hated it so back to black. Many days lost, sore back sore legs sore arms. Now I’m plant shopping and eyeing up some Japanese Acers 🍁

@purplelime Nice! I do enjoy a nice deep black fence!

The fence that's currently unpainted... is that like an exterior fence or something?

@andycarolan thank you! That other fence belongs to my neighbours. I went for black to make sure it covered the blue underneath and it’ll be a nice backdrop to the plants I plan to put in pots along it πŸͺ΄

@purplelime That makes sense! #FenceSense lol

Ooh, nice! That will look lovely!

@andycarolan the other side of the yard is where I have the birds feeding stations hanging from the tree so I’m starting to think it might be best to leave that it’s natural colour otherwise it might be whitewashed by the feathered visitors quite quickly 🫣

@purplelime LMAO! Yes!

BTW, I'm not sure that your HomePod should be glowing like that πŸ˜‰πŸ˜…

@purplelime @andycarolan Haha, best leave that side au naturel.
@purplelime Nothing like a good work out, but boy does that fence look good afterwards. Nice job.
@alexandra thanks Alex. Oh yes I was very sore after and slept like a log, but pleased to get it freshened up as it was looking very tired
@purplelime I've done fences before and know, it's a lot of hard work, so yeah, I bet you slept well.
