But right now it's dangling in midair, temporarily relieved of its duties while Tom performs surgery. As modernization forces small farms to shut down, leaving their outbuildings to the elements, converting a barn is one way to save a disappearing vernacular form. Because barns have usually been nothing but barns throughout their life, they have aged both with use and with the slow-moving effects of time and weather.

Meet Julia - Likewise, if you regularly entertain guests over dinner, or have small children to watch over, consider selecting a barn design with an open floor plan, so one or both homeowners can communicate with others while preparing meals. The main level includes an open floor plan with large stone fireplace, dining area, and kitchen.

Sunset and sunrise unbroken by buildings. The heady scent of freshly-mown alfalfa. The rich earthy smell of the land at planting time and harvest. Wagons brimming with corn. Stars studding the blackness. Meaning, there will always be words and pictures on Fridays, too. The vlog videos will just be an additional feature to the blog post. How does that sound? Holy eye candy, Batman! Ready for updating, this year-round home offers so much—including a 3-season porch, a large, sunny backyard, new wiring and an automatic generator installed in 2015. Okay- back to barn red. While I was researching colors, I also learned that farmers started painting their barns red in the late 1700s. They came up with a recipe consisting of skimmed milk, lime, and red iron oxide, which created a rusty red-colored mixture that became super popular because it was cheap to make and lasted for years. Farmers were able to easily obtain the iron oxide from soil, and they noticed that the homemade paint kept the buildings warmer during the wintertime, since the darker color absorbs the warmth from the sun more than plain, weathered wood.

I recall she primed her doors dark grey 1st to reduce the coats of red required to get complete coverage. Something to consider since red seems like a new frontier for you given your preferred colour palette. Plus she designed a line of paint colours for Para Paints base on that farmhouse reno — perhaps it included her tried and true red that she used. Love this project and looking forward to great inspiration along the way! I am sure you will pick the perfect color. We are very fortunate to have neighbors with a gorgeous barn in our backyard. We get to see it everyday! I love how cozy your living room looks in your video. It is exactly what I have been looking for! I want to work with you so badly before you get slammed. Your white room where you did this vlog is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!
