Fretting

Lots of neighbours are kind enough to stop by and compliment the house. Inwardly, I am always thinking, "but wait until you see what comes next!". That "next" arrived this week in the form of the verandah balustrading and fretwork. Lovely arches for the front verandahs, sweet corner brackets for the rear verandahs,  and railings to stop small children and smug champagne-drinkers from plunging to the earth below.
