Color is Cape Hatteras Sand by Benjamin Moore

Photos taken after the first coat. I still have a lot of touch-up work to do.


Well, my goal was to have the kitchen painted by the time we went to the Hessler Street fair this Saturday...and I met that goal! I began the following Monday after Mother's Day working to prepare the kitchen to be painted. That work included:

1. repairing damage from the electrican's work.
2. Spackling low areas in the wall & removing high areas lightly sanding
3. Sanding up the doorway trims to remove paint drips & slops, scraping peeling paint, applying peel stop, then wood putty in areas to be sanded.

Liam caulked the trims & baseboards.

Then, everything was sanded & then primed.

4. I stippled the ceiling. Liam helped paint the ceiling.

I used to have an email address for you, I think. Anyway, I was wondering if you knew anything of this interesting house that I stumbled upon the other day, a bit down the street from you.
