Prolly something us guys don’t always hear..

That’s great

Doing it yourself is a great justification to purchase tools for the job versus hiring it out and when the job is done you still have the tool!

That wall paper definitely needed to go. No black & decker love?? Keep the pictures coming.

That’s great absolutely! I tell my wife I’m doing home improvement research when I’m shopping for tools and checking out TIA vids

Had some issues with paint bubbles… first time ever for me .. tape job ended up being up way longer than we wanted… and to top it of i swear my second gallon of red paint seems a little lighter… need better ladder for detail work. Think were gonna do wallpaper back splashes in the builtins…

Tell my wife all the time and she sees it later that I buy tools for a reason and that they will be used.

nice job, was all the trim in place already? when I did all mine I pre painted it all before installing it then just touch ups here and there later…

iam76Member since Jan 2016

It was there… the worst part wasnt touch ups on trim.. its the damn bubbles on second coat.. never had that happen

iam76Member since Jan 2016

Lol way to many fun corners to sand touch up… def would be easier from scratch… looks pretty solid… wonder if the white and red is to jarring.. was sposed to be kinda deep red.. white brings it out i think.. drapes might help..

 

Thats it for the night.

 

Thanks for all the comments
