Hang
The weather is still good (two weeks of sunny weather and it seems to stay nice the coming week as well! Maybe this summer won’t be that bad after all…) so I also redid the front balcony on the second floor. I hung the balustrade in mid-air, because there was no room for it in the garden (the porch balustrade was still there) and now the whole thing looks like a deconstructionism art installation. Passing contractors stop their trucks to gaze up.
After 5 balconies I’m getting quite good at this, but if a client would ask me to do it for her I’m not sure I would. It is dirty and stressful work and after applying the polyester I’ve so many little fibreglass pieces in my skin that it itches for a couple of days.

Mooooi! Did you pick that colour just to entice me to offer you a deal too good to refuse for the balcony treatment here in Amsterdam? I do notice that you wrote ‘if a client would ask me to do it for _her_’… :-)

Make me an offer I can’t refuse :-)
I chose the colour beacuse it matches the background of this website. Alison thinks it is blue-green, I think it is green-blue. Colour perception is a strange phenomenon.
And about the ‘her’: all clients are female, unless they are not.
