Baseboards and Primer

I haven't been updating the blog lately because I've been working so hard. Thursday I cleaned up the mess from the sanding. It was a real pain because the dust was everywhere and wiping down the walls was brutally messy.

Friday I put up all the door casing, all the baseboards and the post cover. I'm not a big fan of doing trim work but I'm in the home stretch. I worked on it from 6pm to 3am in order to get ready to primer Saturday morning. It took so long because not only did I install the trim I also had to fill the holes and caulked the trim.

Saturday morning Tracy and I started putting primer on the walls. It took about 6 hours. Don't ask me why it took so long. It's not like we were worried about getting any on the ceiling or floor. I think the primer was just a pain to use and the drywall sucked it up.

In the following pictures you can see the room after the primer went up.

And a close-up of the post cover. Another good investment.
