Since I tore out the bar that was previously in the mudroom area, I had to add studs and drywall to the wall. The previous owner of this house had cut out an arch in the wall for the bar. So my son-in-law helped me "sister" new studs to the existing stud parts that were in the wall. Then we had to screw on 4 sheets of drywall. I never could have done that by myself, sheets of drywall are just too heavy for me to handle. I did learn that you hang drywall horizontally with the seam in the middle.
Why does HGTV make it look so easy?
Today, I was painting stripes on the crates for the coat lockers shelves. I added red, brown, and golden yellow stripes to
coordinate with the floor. I taped off the stripes with painters tape and then added multiple layers of paint to achieve the depth of color that I was looking for. Lastly, I sprayed on clear sealer over the front to the crate to make the paint more durable.
Well, I have to go work on the drywall mud taping..... another adventure awaits.
Smiles,
Deborah
