Room remodel progress
Nov. 18th, 2023 11:04 amRemember, folks, progress is only real if people hear about you doing it. :)
Painting: Slightly more than half the room has been painted twice (two coats of finish color). I did the one side twice first so that I didn't have to move everything more times. Right now I'm drying the paint (woodstove on, widow in room open, blower fan in window facing outward, pulling warm dry stove air through room and out window) so that I can move the stuff and paint the other side of the room.
Trim: All removed from walls, all nails removed. Needs to be painted but I am not feeling trim painting just yet. Have to put down flooring before I can reinstall trim anyway.
Flooring: I need one box of remaindered LVT (need not match color, but does have to match interlock style) and that's the flooring sorted. I've put out a request to my flooring peeps to see what they can dig up for me. (The plants will not care what color the floor is.)
Hole patching (ceiling): ugh. There are some holes in the ceiling because I was trying to locate studs with, like, negative success. I need to finish the patch and sanding there so that I can effing paint the entire ceiling. I hate above-my-head work but also I will hate unpainted spots in the ceiling so I expect this will resolve itself eventually by way of big girl pants, etc.
( Heck, let's Review The Project Deliverables! )
