Tired of Painting



I just got finished putting the second coat of paint on the walls. The trim around the ceiling and edges may need another coat since it was the first coat in those areas (it was too late last night.) I'll put another coat in those areas tonight, if needed.


After this we'll paint the baseboards and touch of any places that we can find. Then, I'll install our new lighting fixture so we can have some more light in the room (been using a work lamp) and also see what the room will look like without a huge flood light on it.


Here are some pictures of how the room has progressed over the last few days:

Well, that's all for tonight. We've found that preparing for the next step usually takes long than the step itself. For example, setting up the tarps and putting painter's tape where we want took longer than actually painting. Go figure.


Right now we're watching some TV while the paint is drying. Stay tuned for more updates. We are nearing completion and should meet our goal of being finished by the weekend, but we're not going to slack off until it is done.
