Living Room: Another Weekend of Work

This past weekend was spent finishing up with the priming and beginning the painting process.

Hallway: pre-primer

And post-primer


With the ceiling painted and the trim primed - the walls look so yellow and dingy.  Ewwww!


Priming the entry way took a LOT of work!

You can see the new color a little better in this picture contrasted against the old color

Living Room - Days 11 to 20: Prime Time!

The remodel came to a bit of a crawl for about a week - life just got busy and slowed us down. Things are still moving along though - even if it's a little slower than the first week.


We've been taping and compounding the new 1/2 wall at the top of the stairs.




Priming the new drywall around the fireplace





Taping and priming windows (taping is slooooow work!)





And priming various trim around doorways





Stay tuned!  Next up is ceiling paint - which should prove to be highly entertaining...
