The ugly areas on the top of the bottom of the room still need baseboards and crown molding, and we haven't even bought that yet, let alone painted it. We will probably paint it first, then put it on.
I also put the first coat of stain on the floor today. The room is looking more and more like a room, which is making me happy.
Here we are prepped and ready for trim painting.
Post trim painting, pre floor staining:
Rogue on the sanded, unstained floor:
Putting stain on:
Finished product, floor stained and trim painted!
Tomorrow is my last day off, and there's not too much left that I can do by myself. I may put a second coat of stain on the floor, and I may prime more of the closet (which is a bitch bastard due to shitty texturing and shitty plaster, but I'll be damned if I'm tearing down and drywalling the tiny closet. NOT worth it).
Once the floor is stained, I'll have Mitch put the polyurethene finish on and we'll let that sit 24 hours, in the meantime we can pick out crown molding and pick up baseboards. Getting those guys on should be a snap (famous last words?). We also have to put the window frames back up (oh, and I should probably paint those...add that to the to do list) once Mitch has put new cords and weights on the windows. I did paint the window frames today, so those are ready to be put on. I think once thats done, we're done! Then we move into the room and start picking out curtains and assembling baby furniture...
