The Work Has Begun

Prep work done, so now the fun part of the job begins. Painting ! Recently I saw this drop cloth used in a video about stripping off wallpaper and I was intrigued. We found it last night at Lowe's and I have to say, this one thing has made the job of painting so much nicer. You just stick the tape part to the baseboard and then pull out the drop cloth part. It stays put, and allows me to not worry so much about paint drips. Its a good size roll for about $10 and certainly works better than my usual spreading of newspapers. Hoping to have the room finished by the end of the week. Emery and I checked out crown moulding last night, trying to pick out just what I want and what Emery agrees to spend ! I have expensive taste and always have. Fortunately, I am quite content to hunt for a good bargain.
