Okay not really, Elliott has said this but it comes from his pride in finishing the fence at our house. He came, he saw, he conquered! Actually, fencers quoted, Elliott balked, designed and built! I am so proud that he did! He saved us boocoodle bucks (like $1500) and it looks better than we could have imagined.
Before we had ugly rotted green painted slats with beautiful chicken wire reinforcement.... *sarcasm*.
Our poor neighbors have asked about the fence "can we help you paint, etc" and we are so happy that we were able to knock it out because we know that they have been tired of looking at our piece of crap excuse for a fence... as well as every other neighbor that drives or walks by the house because of our corner lot!
Elliott began by demo-ing and planning. He designed and executed everything and even purchased a few new tools in the process... lucky dog! I helped by putting my pressure washing skills to use to clean up the columns and prep them for the new posts. A neighbor said "wow I didn't even realize you all had this brick..."
Don't ask about that all-forsaken corner post. Elliott set it twice. Yes, set in concrete, removed, re-set again. We won't discuss OCD in this blog entry.... love you EMo.
Slats!
Now let's jump into the final product! Thank you Elliott for spending so much time and effort on our home and for making this look AMAZING!
Check this project off the list!
Love to all!
