Work Travels Apace
I have been plugging away at the home office, (pictures here for anyone interested) and am making steady progress. The ceiling took quite a bit of work because of its heavy texturing. After two thick coats with a deep knap roller, it still had little speckles of white showing through. I spent my entire lunch break today just walking around with a brush filling in white spots.
With the ceiling more or less done, I moved on to the primer coat on the walls. I have to do a second primer coat tomorrow, and then go back and do one last touch up on the ceiling. Then I can tape off the ceiling edges and finally start with the color. Right now the room looks very depressing; gray ceiling, mottled gray walls, and a gray bare concrete floor. It feels like a prison cell. I expect tomorrow or the next day will be the turning point when the burgandy starts going up.
