    Yes, they’re lovingly painted, for sure. They’re tucked away at the foot of the stairs as you go down, so hard to find. Glad you like them!

    Great find Wendi!! Yes, number 3 stands out quite a bit. I bet the postman loves that!! :D

  • Wendi Donaldson replied

    Certainly ‘one-stop-shopping’ for the postman…he can get rid of a lot of mail all at one time! It’s a cheery stop on his route, I’m sure.
    Glad you like it, Ursula! Thanks.
