The Trim Is Done

The trim is done on the interior walls of the Crafty Cottage and with each day we get a little closer to finishing it up. When we used the recycled bead board paneling we had one small problem, the interlocking flaps were not on all of the panels we used so there were some seams on the walls that needed to be covered. We chose thin strips of trim to cover the wall seams and a thicker wood trim for th ceiling, windows and corners of the cottage. The trim looks really good and I have to thank Tim again for all of his hard work. He is really making sure this cottage is going to be nice for me. Thanks Tim! So, with the trim up Tim started painting the walls while I went to the Laundermat, WooHoo! The eggshell color I chose is really more white then I wanted for the walls so it has become the primer for the walls and we will head back to Lowes today for another color of paint. I have had suggestions of pale yellow or a light green but I really want the light and not be tied down to a specific color for decorating so I am just going to go with a little darker tone of white like a vanilla. We are also going to go out and look at storage sheds today. We thought we had decided on the kind of shed we wanted but while we were driving to Pigeon Forge last Sunday we saw another Shed place so we are going to go check those sheds out. We are going to use the storage shed to house our washer and dryer and our freezer along with all of the things we have in storage in Jacksonville. So hopefully next month we will be going to Jacksonville and cleaning out our storage unit and bringing back our stuff to the farm. Of course today is also College Football Saturday so we will be watching football today too! The Florida Gators, NIU Huskies and Oregon Ducks all have byes this week and the South Carolina Gamecocks and Missouri Tigers are playing eachother tonight so I know at least one of my three teams playing will have a win! Go NAU Lumberjacks, Gamecocks and Tigers!
