Mailbox Post

It was looking a little icky... so while we had the stain out to do the backyard fence, we also stained the mailbox post.

BEFORE
BEFORE- Close up of the ugly!



















AFTER

I didn't want the post to stand out- I think the dark green stain helps it blend better, yet still look fresh & clean.

The new flowers in the hanging iron basket also helped clean it up quite a bit.  (I had planned to put evergreen branches & holly berries in there for the Christmas season, but never got around to it... oops!  I'm embarrassed that it looked this bad for so long!)

This morning I forgot to take a photo from across the street, showing the whole house behind it... I will put that on my to-do list and upload it soon.

The backyard fence is also done, so photos of that coming soon!
