FINISH ONE; START ANOTHER: PART 2

SEPTEMBER 13, 2010

Having finished sanding the kitchen and bathroom, I dusted the ceiling and walls, and taped the log wall in the kitchen. I primed and painted the ceilings in the hall and the bathroom. All our fire alarms have red shower caps on them to keep the dust out. We're not sure how we will finish the attic door to the gazebo--maybe tongue and groove.















Saturday Tonya came over to paint. She painted in the bathroom. This is called "canary," but I think it looks like chartreuse.




I sanded walls in the great room, and then in the stair well. Then it was time to dust and tape the rest of the great room and the stair well.

Meanwhile Frank began to put up the tongue and groove in the Great Room. What a difference it makes! He finished two sections as far as he could until the great room is painted. Now it is easy to see where the sky lights will be.






























He then went back to applying coats 2 and 3 of joint compound in the study and the laundry room. When that was completed, he began the same process in the garage.















My next project was to paint the walls in the kitchen, hall, and great room. This is how far I got today with the first coat in the great room. The kitchen and hall are painted, and I am cutting in for the next part of the great room. This color is called "dill."


We continue to be excited and eager. Our dream is really taking shape!
