Trim Update

It’s been almost a month and we’ve been busy with trim in the diningroom and kitchen and Garden projects (I’ll post a different update there).

At the end of June I got the kitchen island painted with the paint we had bought when we got the cabinets — so it matches very nicely.

Island Primed
Finished … the paint really matches well but it’s oil based so it was stinking up the house!

Next up Ryan spent a few weekends working on the diningroom and finished up the trim. The one last thing in there is to make the box for the chandelier but otherwise the trim is done.

Ceiling boxes done

The diningroom will look amazing once that trim is all painted!

Speaking of painting. The last 2 weekends I’ve spent working on 1/2 of the kitchen – sanding, caulking, priming then painting this last weekend. It’s almost done (1 more coat on the walls) and Ryan has to build out the pantry shelves next.

Loving it

So excited… the walls go quick so one night after bedtime I can finish up that second coat. I have to touch up the ceiling paint too so add that to the list. Hopefully next weekend the pantry build out starts!
