After a day off yesterday, we felt the push to get back to painting and we’re still hoping to get to a good stopping place before we have to head home. We taped and cleaned around the edges outside and were able to get the whole upstairs painted before the end of the day! It looks just incredible! We love the color and the contrast with the white windows and doors looks so great! I can’t wait until the whole house is done. But the rest is for another trip I’m afraid.
We also painted the rest of the ceilings inside to get ready for painting walls tomorrow. The white ceilings will be a nice touch with the gray that we chose for the inside walls. I’m so excited to see how it all looks! Josh fired up the pressure washer to get the outside walls clean but it didn’t last long when we realized that the city water had gone out and we didn’t want to use up all the water in the cistern. You never know how long the city will have the water off so better to be safe than sorry! We also had a few hours today with the power off so we opted to roll the rest of the paint on since we couldn’t use the sprayer. It actually turned out great and looks just as good.
Overall a successful day and we’re oh so close to getting done with the upstairs paint!
