When will winter end?  I need these lounge chairs cleared of snow, 75 degrees, sunshine and ahhhhhh.

Brick wall Bistro

Have you ever noticed that in your home you don't notice things?  Such as, you had every intention of repainting that wall that got scribbled on "accidentally" by one of your kids, and no matter how much scrubbing and scrubbing you did, it still had a faint memory of  markers?  And then, after some time, you just didn't notice it anymore?  This happens to me all the time.  We had every intention of tiling a kitchen wall where the pot rack hung but after a period of time, we forgot and just didn't see that it needed to be done.  So, periodically, I try very hard to see my home with new eyes to stay current and we came up with the plan to put up a small section of brick behind our pot rack and we were astonished at how much character it brought to the room, and also, it looked like it was always there!  Tell me what you think!  I love what our mason Phil Ruzek did and he can do it for you too, just let me know and I'll give you his contact information.  He is very fair and creative as well, so if  you aren't sure but have a hint of an idea, he can help you out.  We also incorporated bricks from vacant land across the street.  Hard to see but there are some random bricks that say "Metropolitan Block Canton, O".
