I finally got motivated to
I finally got motivated to try and get the kitchen painted before Todd's birthday party over Labor Day weekend. The paint has been sitting there waiting for me since June. The former owner had a nas-tay border in addition to the antacid-green paint (see photo of when it was her kitchen here). The border peels off part of the drywall and paint when it goes, so it's quite the mess, and we have to be really careful taking it all down. We're going to try our carpet steamer (idea from Gma!) and see if we can steam it off next. Part of the kitchen has a cathedral ceiling, which should make things fun. I think you should be able to force the person who put the border there to remove it...but I digress... Anyhoo, this is what I got done today (the walls that weren't effected by the border at least). Apologies in advance for the crappy webcam. Eventually that faux-fruit-tile wallpaper will go to, but first things first. At least the green will soon be gone!
