Drywall, Wet Walls

While we were away, JDK mudded and taped the drywall in the master bedroom and bathroom. So when we got back, it was ready to paint.

We liked the color of the bathroom, but wanted something lighter. So Gerald did a field blend, lightening that color with an off-white paint until we got something that resembled sage green.

We thought we had enough to do the master walls and ceiling, but I used every last little bit just to cover the walls.

On Sunday, Gerald went to Lowes in Prescott with a color sample we had painted.

Painting the ceiling proved hazardous and required special gear.

Unfortunately, the ceiling paint Lowes mixed up didn't match what we had on the walls. It was darker and bluer. So I had to do it all over again the following week with a corrected batch.

We also got enough to do the master bath. Unfortunately, when I went to install the outlet covers, the outlets were recessed too deeply into the walls, which were now all plastered over. JC suggested #8 flat washers to remedy the situation.
