So I'm off for spring break this week which means its time to tackle redoing Holland's big girl room. We are doing a couple things different this time around, we'll see how it goes :-)
One of the things we are doing that we've never done before is getting rid of the little wood strips that hide the joints. Not that the cheap little wood strips aren't wonderful and all, but we are kind of sick of looking at them. Somebody told us they filled in theirs with joint compound and it worked great, so we are giving it a try! Anyone else out there who has ever done it? Holland thought my big bucket of wall spackle was ice cream and got mad she couldn't have some (please daddy!). Got all the strips out and spackle in, next step is sanding and going over missed spots.
This is the graveyard of wall strips.
Steph has fallen in love with the little cube storage units from Target. I assembled this one tonight. 55 little finishing nails just for the 5 back panels! Oh, we thought the bins were 2 packs and they were only 1, so there will be 2 more bins after we go to target again.
That's all for day 1!
