The She Shed: Part 2

The She Shed is going to be my place to do projects. James is as excited about this as I am since it will mean no more clutter on the kitchen island or dining room table when I undertake a grand scheme.  But in order to work out in the shed, there had to be light, so now, windows!

Adding windows was beyond my skill set, so James to the rescue!!  We spent one night watching window installation videos on YouTube, assured each other that we were college-educated, competent people who should be able to handle this, and then went to buy our supplies.

First we cut the holes.


Then we framed up the window.


Next, we installed and sealed them up. (It took us 4 hours to install the first window and 1 1/2 hours to install the last one. We thought that was pretty good for beginners!)


And finally, we dressed the outside of the windows. 


We used, nice big frames so that we wouldn't also feel the need for shutters.


Next....paint!!

Until tomorrow,
Shelli

from a chin in the hand and a thoughtful pose
Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose.
