Painting the House Grey

Our lovely Victorian terrace was in much need of love and care when we purchased it.
Slowly work is being done and her beautiful features are being restored.
This weekend we, my husband!, began the enormous task of painting the front of the house. 
Ladders and heights terrify me, if I do any painting it will be ground level!
When we bought the house the colour was somewhat vibrant 
and a house not easily overlooked being pink and aqua blue!
Our colour choice is a little more subdued and elegant, in French greys.
Although hard to see with the bright sunlight reflecting on the walls, 
we think the transformation is wonderful.
Much work still needs to be done with many repairs along the way
 but here are some of our progress pictures.
