Painting Woes

Last week the painter started and finished the first coat of paint throughout the house. We were loving the color and thought everything looked awesome. That is until the painter told us that the drywall mudder had screwed up his horizontal seams. If you looked at the seams with a light (to simulate what it would look like when we have the lights installed) you could see that part of the wall was kind of grooved and wavy. Not the look we are going for. The mudder had to come back and sand down the seams, refill them, and then sand them again. 

















This is what our beautiful paint looks like now.  Whomp whomp. 
The painter has to come back this week to re-prime and re-paint those sections. 

In other good painting news, our interior doors and trim have all been sprayed and are ready to be installed by our finisher. 





















Welcome to our hall of mirrors doors.
This is a horrible picture, our doors aren't really blue, they are white. There is a blue tarp hanging over the garage door openings to keep debris out of the wet paint though.
















All of our trim! Do you think we have enough?!

  1. Oh gosh - I really thought your doors were blue! How funny. Nice to feel the details start to come together - no matter how slowly. ;)

    1. Could imagine blue doors? Everyone needs a little bit of smurf in their house!
