Hick sent a picture from Bargain House on Tuesday morning. In typical Hick fashion, he declared a project DONE. But I don't think so...
"Ceiling finished in kitchen."
I beg to differ. Oh, who are we fooling? I'm not begging at all. I'm DIFFERING! This is not a finished ceiling! So I replied...
"Except for paint and lights."
An hour later, Hick responded: "Now I can paint and put the lights back in there hole i have to get a new ceiling light for the center." I'm pretty sure he sent that text from his lunch table at the Senior Center, having Chicken Pot Pie.
Anyhoo... the Swirly Man did a pretty good job on that kitchen ceiling patch. Once it's all the same color, I think it will be fine. Besides, who wants to look at the ceiling when they have that shiny, shiny backsplash to draw their attention!
The progress-after-wrecking ball is rolling once again. After painting, the floor can go down, and stove and refrigerator will be put in place.

I was curious about the two colors on the ceiling but apparently they'll be painted over. Looks like the swirler got a tad sloppy over there on the blue wall above the cupboard. I imagine that will have to be painted over too.
ReplyDeleteThe white part is the patch where there was a hole in the ceiling. The swirler matched the swirls on the old ceiling. The plan has always been to paint the ceiling, and also the "blue board" that is just drywall. It was never going to stay blue and unpainted.
DeleteIt is looking good and will be so much better when the painting is finished and the new light installed. You might find it selling before Easter!
ReplyDeleteI hope so! Time to move on to another project.
DeletePaint will cover a multitude of sins!!
