Prepping the house!


Of course before painting a house there is alot, and I mean alot, of prep work. This is a project that we actually began over a wk. ago and has lasted until today (tomm. comes the painting). First you need to remove all shelves and brackets off of the walls, as well as switch plates and outlet covers. Then there was alot of washing to be done to the walls. Which the girls helped w/ quite a bit. Then we vaccumed all of the cobwebs from every wall, ceiling, and corner in the house. Lastly, mom did the spackling and sanding of all of the holes. Believe me there were alot. Yes this house needs alot of TLC but mom and I have huge plans for it and cannot wait to see the finished product. I wanted to include you all in on this process and I am open to any suggestions or comments that you have!
Let the Journey begin!
