Mini update and progress report number two, while I take a mini break and wait for my daughter and boyfriend to arrive.
Didn't want to not do what I intended to do and that was sand, dust, wipe and tape the window edges and panes.
Here is the little beauty that is my new friend for some time to come. The borrowed Ryobi Yellow Peril. Thanks to my gorgeous friend Ali S. for lending me this wonder. It makes sanding so much faster and easier and less taxing on my back and arms.
The other Yellow Peril!
Managed to do all the little edges for the entire window which created loads of fine dust. Made sure I wore the mask and eye protection.
So much dust. Had to wipe down the feature wall as well.
Oops! Oh well at least it isn't in my hair...
Or is it? You probably cannot see the fine film of dust and I hope it comes out easily.
Taped all windows ready to paint without stressing about going on the window pane to make the job so much easier for me to do. It is after all, all about the prep work.
Lick of paint coming up.
Next should be the feature wall being finished with the last coat. Hope I don't have to get more paint for that and that what I have left is enough.
After the wall and the window I have the skirting to do which is not so easy as down low and three large doors which is not so hard as I can use a mini roller for that.
At least I started as the weather is great for oil based paint to dry.
Note to self - make sure no bugs fly in and get stuck in the paint.
Cheers
Anita now waiting on that help!
