Wow, it's beautiful, Liz! And I can see that George likes it, too. I like all your pots of pelargoniums on the ledge. I call them geraniums, because that's what my mother and grandmother always called them; they're one of my favorites.

I still love the colours you've used. It looks so clean and bright and George really enhances the 'after' pic!

Thanks all.

I call them geraniums too, rose!

Thanks, amanda.

Depending on the time of day it is a cool spot, Lia. I've tried 3 times to visit your blog but it freezes each time I get there!

Thanks, James.

I think so, nick.

We do, leslie.

And George does, jmb.

THanks, jams and cherypie.

Yes, I think the colours worked well although I wasn't sure at first, wendy.
