What a Mess!!

This is what has been going on at our place. Drywall dust everywhere..and I know some of you know what a mess that can be to live with. The cats have been locked up during the day while this has been going on in the living/diningroom. They were not happy. Kally I kept moving around with me. Now the entrance and 2 bedrooms are being done. There was a grass cloth over panelling to strip.



That went along great until I found a mural under the window wall. OMGoodness..what a deal that has been. With the help of friends we got it off. Rod suggested replacing the panels with drywall but NO..enough!!! The paint looks great and I can not live with more dust. Maybe down the road..but I am in no hurry!!! One more day should have the wallpaper off. We have to move some pine cupboards that weigh a lot even empty so that is the next deal. 3/4 done with the painting in the kitchen/diningroom..yippee!!!!



Looking good..now to find some new ceiling fixtures.





I am not sure when or if I am EVER going to find everything..lol. Emptying a sewing room is not a good thing....lol. Back to my painting..Enjoy the day. Going to be a nice sunny day here.

Yes, it is awful in the middle of it all but will be so worth it! (Tell me this is so in a few weeks cuz I will be tearing mine apart this Fall!)

Just keep thinking it is going to be beautiful and then I will come for a visit and we can crack open a large bottle of wine. Hugs

Just think how organized you will be when you put everything back in its place!!!

Enjoy the sunny weather. We are soon to have a bit of sun here, too. We've had a long stretch of rain here! I am feeling a bit soggy!!

Home improvements of any kind are hard to live through. I hope yours goes quickly, finishes on time, and is on budget! :)
