Photos of my old rustic well house in the country may look romantic to those who love chippy paint, but the truth is the building needs repairs. And, I need a tool shed for garden tools, garden supplies, and garden equipment. 

This spring the well house has finally risen to the top of my list of repair projects. 'Before' photos from last spring, during bluebonnet season, show the old well house at its best. Spring green trees and wild flowers soften the views of badly damaged siding and a damaged flower trellis. 

Mudroom Makeover

And Spring cleaning continues at my house... 

Wait 'til you see my mudroom makeover! 

A catch-all mudroom is becoming an organized 

fun place to store tools, flower vases, over-sized pots, 

and vintage bits and pieces. 

While cleaning the mudroom, a makeover began taking place in my mind. 

Turn it into someplace to hold my favorite French wire basket, flower pots, 

a collection of vintage gardening tools, small construction tools, and vases. 

Turn it into a small attached 

indoor tool shed. 

The more I thought about it, the more I liked the idea.
