DELAFIELD, Wis. (CBS 58) -- The re-opening of Delafield's iconic Smiley Barn off I-94 has been postponed. Reconstruction has hit a snag because of the giant smile.

According to the Poblocki Sign Company, the barn's siding can't support the weight of the signs.

Crews are changing the way they're mounted to a more secure part of the building.

They hope to have the barn finished by next Friday.
