weekend of painting fury
This weekend consisted of large amounts of white and chocolate brown paint along with a ruined set of acrylic nails. Key word here ladies and gentlemints...always sand before you paint. I got the craigslist armoir painted a pretty white and now it's all purty with a new beadboard backing. I'm very happy I chose the pre-painted kind. My hands were killing me after awhile. I still have the basecoves to do on the bathroom cabinets, but that requires patience that I didn't have and will have to try again later in the week. I've become quite attched to my new powertools though. This could get to be a dangerous habit installing and fixing things on my own. I will not touch the lighting fixtures though...painful memories of being shocked when I was little. *shudder*. I decided on Sunday I had to get the nails redone though as I had to meet with a new freelance client. I don't know why I even try to do the hair thing though as the humidity pretty much ruins my hair in 2 minutes. The bathrooms are starting to look very cool though. It's aggravating though that the more I improve things the more I want to improve the things I though were ok at first. Like now I think I need new bathroom accessories to perfectly match the cute shelf I got for each bathroom. They were ok before, but now....ew. and the floor. I've become obsessed with my floor. I want to totally rip out the carpet downstairs and replace it with pretty wood laminate. I've even gon so far as to get an estimate which was not so good but I know a guy who might be able to help. I'll post pics later
