OK, well it took a long time but I finally got a weekend to do some work on the house. I installed a cheap kitchen faucet just to get us by, it was 12 bux, so no pics of that. Got the freebie dishwaser installed, just to get us by, again no pics of that. BUT, I did finish the drywall in the living room, taped, mudded, floated, and textured all that...Woot.
This thing is coming along. This week I hope to primer the walls and ceiling, and be ready for paint by this weekend, and speaking of paint that starts us off with the pics.
Here is the color we chose for the living room walls. I know its hard to really picture the color but its very nice...called ''Trenchcoat Kakhi.''
One of my employees was replacing the carpet in his living room with bamboo hardwood, so I helped him rip out the carpet for the fee of keeping it. Carpet is basically in perfect condition, and will be going in the babys room.
This is the texture the ceiling got. Particles from a speck up to 1/4 inch.
This is the texture the walls got. Particles from a speck up to 1/8th inch. I also caulked the corners to round them off and stave off any future cracking from movement during our reduculously hot summers.
