New paint!

[Bluestreak]

Still trying to put more lipstick on this pig. New paint actually looks pretty good. My wife did all the work and I think we only have $400 into the whole thing. People were saying they didn't know we were there since the building sits back from the road a bit. I think it's more eye-catching now. I like the bubbles!

Tell your wife she did a damn nice job

Wow that looks great. How did she do the bubbles?

She used pots lids and bowls to trace circles on poster board. Then she cut the holes out and used the poster board as a template. She taped the board to the wall and used spray paint to shade the inside of the template. We had a local sign place cut letters out of sticky scrap vinyl and he only charged us $40 for the letters. She traced around them and hand painted the sign.

I do have a very good wife!

Nice job! Especially for a non professional. Just shows that good things can be done if you put your mind to it.
I'll bet you'll see an uptick in your sales soon.
Good luck!

Wow, your building really stands out now and the white makes it look very clean.

$400 isn't much money and I bet you will get that back within the next month or two.

When I do something to my building I print out the design onto a transparency and then use an over head projector at night to project it onto the building. Then I just trace it with a marker and paint it the next day.

Very Nice! That should be a real eye catcher from the road.
It will look great at night with some lights on the front wall.

That looks great. What a transformation! Looks like your wife may have a new career ahead of her.

What a positive change. I love the bubbles so much. She deserves a raise or at least a pedicure or jewelry or flowers or a nice dinner out or a massage. Just a few ideas for ya. Ha ha!
