The ladies of the house got a head start on our Father's Day Project this weekend....we are converting a small room in the basement into sleeping quarters for our favorite Fall guest, Gpa Craig! He picked the spot himself, and framed it out during his last visit...I guess the 3 story climb to our guest room was just a bit much for the ole' man.....lol.....this spot is nice and cool, and only a few steps below grade.....he can also have his very best good dog Sadie come in and sleep with him too down here....
We started by applying...some oil based Kilz primer to all the walls and ceiling...here's a shot of the room with one wall primed...it was at about this time I determined I better get some BEFORE shots!
And here is another shot before we got started...kinda dark and dingy, eh?
After the primer was applied, we put a good coat of paint on all the walls and trim....
Not so bad! It's starting to resemble a usable room!
We still have to apply a second coat of paint to the walls and trim, as well as first and second coats to the ceiling...oh yeah, and a good concrete sealant/paint is yet to go on the floor too....then the fun part, decorating! Stay tuned!
Happy Trails,
Leah
