We kept chugging along at the end of June to get most of the siding done. Since we had already completed the longer walls, it was time to tackle the siding around the front door. The straight cuts were super easy, but then we had to cut around that lovely trim I picked out. After that, we stopped for the day since we needed soffits before continuing the siding up to the top.
The next days focused on soffits and finishing the siding on the back and above the front door. We were still waiting on the roof before we could official finish the siding. Luckily the roof was done while I was out of town…look for a post on this soon!
Siding by the front door.
Four leaf clover taped above the door for luck!
Notching around the door trim.
We took a break once we hit the angled part.
Soffits are next! Then we can continue the siding up to the top.

Cutting these at an angle required an expert’s skill. I left this up to dad!
Eye-balling it…
And yet another piece that needs to be notched…nothing is simple on this project.
Soffit 1!
Soffit 2!
Soffits on the back as well.
I did mention that the window trim was complicated to cut around, right? 😉
