Be our guest

Last summer we painted Marie's old room so Caleb could move into it, and then painted the guest room for Igor. Caleb's old room is now the guest room. I intended to paint it over the summer but ran out of time, and ever since have been looking for a good weekend to get the job done. This was it!

Mom came Saturday morning to help me while Brad went to get a load of wood. We taped all the edges and primed the walls. What I forgot to take into consideration was that the cooler fall weather would increase the drying time of the paint. The primer was taking so long to dry that we finally gave up and went shopping. :-)

Today after church I painted and I love it! The walls are now a soft, soothing butter-yellow. We moved most of the furniture back into the room, but had to leave it away from the walls, which were still tacky. Once the room is all put back together, I'll try to post a picture. Or better yet, come check it out for yourself!
