before and after...

O.K. well, I had Saturday to finish this concrete staining project since Cody was home to watch Noah. The shade in the brochure "terra cotta glaze" matched our brick perfectly, but when I first rolled it on, I wasn't so sure. I really like the color, I'm just not so sure if it goes well with the brick, it needs something to tone it down. But, then I tell myself anything looks better than the gray concrete and plants in them will help also. I think I'm just not up to messing with them anymore, after the cleaning, priming, staining, and sealing marathon. I don't know, someone please give me some input. Cody says they look "fine." Ladies-or gents- some feedback please! Thanks!
