Ceilings nothing more than ceilings

We finished the ceiling in the dining room.

I had to lay down to take the photo.  My arms were too tired to lift the camera.  It looks great.

I started patching the seams and screws and decided I wanted to test out the primer on the stairwell.  Also, because Walt Kowalski is ready to finish the drywall on the bottom of stairwell and the homemade scaffolding needs to come down. 

 



Wet paint always looks blotchy.  With painting, the most important thing to remember is when to stop painting. 

Leave it alone. Let it dry.

We went back in the evening to inspect.  A couple of screws are still noticeable and one seam needs a little more sanding, but otherwise it covered so nicely.  That was just the first coat of primer!
