The cupola will be functional but ...Gorges, thanks! The cupola will be functional but the weathervane is our splurge for the barn. It's those little touches that give things uniqueness and personality. <br /><br />Mrs. Shoes, I would have never thought to put a weathervane on a fencepost, but that's a great idea. I confess I eyed the goat weathervanes for a long time and would have gotten one if the goat looked like a Kinder. ;)<br /><br />I really love the idea of a barn quilt! I had to immediately do an internet search because I've never seen one. But then, we don't have many real barns in my neck of the world anymore. I'll have to show them to Dan. Maybe we could do that for the hayloft doors!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-48005129075907380222017-12-21T00:51:37.870-05:002017-12-21T00:51:37.870-05:00This is wonderful & the traditional rooster is...This is wonderful & the traditional rooster is always a good choice.<br />I'm a sucker for weathervanes myself - we have 2 up & mounted on fenceposts (a horse version & a rooster), but I'd love to have a cow too if I came upon one for a good deal. <br />I do love farm outside decor such as farm signs and the like. My big ask of Mr Shoes right now is for him to mount a 'barnquilt' (wooden) on the end of the barn over the big doors - he suggested that we revisit that ask when the weather is warmer than "freeze his arse off". ;-)Mrs Shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02636736944375337989noreply@blogger.com
