The Smiles

We saw something new in the neighborhood today. This is like a small cement building. Maybe a shed? And it has been painted.



But there is more here than appears. At first it looks just like a lot of smiley faces. But look closer. There are lots of tiny, delicate designs! I don't know how they did it, maybe stamps or templates? It is always good to give things a closer look, for sure.



I’ve never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful.

It takes seventeen muscles to smile and forty-three to frown.

this just proves things are not always what they seem at first glance. the first two pics, I thought I could do that. then in the next three I knew it took and artist to create this. great way to make an old building look good

Wow it's very eye-catching! The details are amazing! Maybe they are done with stamps as you mentioned. Love the super close-up on your header :-)

We would have gone and taken a closer look too. It reminds us with the colors of it the '60s and '70s. Thanks for the share. Have a wonderful weekend.
