your barn door's open!

finally! 

after 3 long days of painting with rollers, brushes and teeny-tiny detail paint brushes...

it is finally complete!

Here is the coop the way we bought it:

Crystal, the owner, does an amazing job! 

and after much deliberation,

(so many fun colors to choose from)

we went with fate... the $5 can on sale that someone left behind






I think "the girls" are going to love their new home.

Now all they need is an antique crystal chandelier up top and some swanky fine linens for afternoon tea.

AND...

due to the inspiration of Crystal (owner of the knotty bird company and builder of our fine coop)
and her amazing gardens,

my favorite guy created a little veggie garden for us too.


(that's my DH gardening in the background)


We are going to grow corn, tomatoes, beans, lavender (I hear it is good in cookies) zucchini, cucumbers, carrots and who knows what else. 

I love our little farm by the ocean!
