Last minute changes to siding






Its been a crazy week with siding again. Originally, the front and back corners of the small box were going to be metal, but when our neighbor Corey (who is doing the roof and metal siding) stopped by to discuss how he was going to put the metal, we quickly figured out that the metal was not going to work. The front area is too small and would look chopped up. So Jay and I collaborated on a concept we think is pretty cool. We are still going to use some metal but its only going to line the inside of the front entrance. To create some texture and visual interest for the front, we are going to wrap the front corner in 12" cement board back to the kitchen windows. Mike, the siding guy, already has most of it done. We are really happy with it but it took awhile to make the decision. The neighbors must think we are crazy since we visit every night and usually just hang out in the front yard pondering the house.
