Getting ready to move.

We are homeowners, but there are some small projects we want to finish before we move the furniture.

Add Shelves for kitchen pantry -- status done.
I used 4 rails and cut a malamine board up to fit a space that was not square or level, Interesting project but i managed to get it so that all the shelves are sound and solid.

Paint the dining room -- status done, except for cleanup.
Thanks to help from Amy Hogg, and my father in-law Charlie.
We went from a mustardy orange color to Sherman Williams "Fun Yellow"




Paint Johnny's Room -- status started.
Johnny's Room had a wall paper boarder around the ceiling that we did not like. We were able to use Charlie's upholstery steamer and some back/shoulder breaking labor.
There were some cracks in the ceiling that I spackled today.


To be done, we have to sand the spackled areas and where there is still residue from the wallpaper boarder.
Then, we are going to paint the ceiling, walls, and trim.

Redo Master Closet -- status started.
To maximize a downsized closet, we are going from a single rod to a double closet rod so that we will have plenty of space.
I tore out some shelves and got the hardware i need to put in the shelves/closet rods.

Prep work still needed to be done, i want to sand and paint where the old shelves were. But this is lower on the priority list. We need to have a closet ready. So we shall see if i get to this.


Well those are the big things for now, so i'll leave you with this video of Johnny learning how to use a carriage bell.
