Finishing touches…
Golly Gee Whizz. What a week. It’s been a bit of a week, altogether! The lovely builders finished the last bits and pieces off for me this week … grouted the kitchen floor, and put up some curtain poles for me, which is rather lovely.
Unfortunately, it now means that everything that’s left is down to me!
So, the last couple of days off I had were spent tackling the kitchen ceiling. Honestly, you just don’t realise how incredibly difficult it is to paint a ceiling until you’re standing on your own in the kitchen brandishing a roller attached to a pole at a space above your head and hoping that it doesn’t drip into your hair! Three quarters of it has been painted now, which just leaves all the fiddly bits around the cupboard to deal with before I can crack on with the walls and then I will finally have a fully functional and attractive kitchen. Woo! I’ve the next four days off which will hopefully be enough time to get it all done. Pictures as soon as I can manage!
Painting ceilings – a nightmare! I once volunteered to decorate my sisters room – painting a sea turtle (it was sea themed… ) on a ceiling is muchos difficult!
God. I struggled with plain white and a roller. Actually painting a sea turtle sounds like Hell on Earth. Makes me wonder about Michaelangelo and the Sistene Chapel. He must have had arms like an orangutan by the time he finished.
