Butch & Blistered
this may not be a major newsflash or anything, but i recently purchased my first home and plan on redoing it for the “flip” thing. it’s been a lot of work, scraping popcorn texture from the ceiling and sanding patches and priming and finally painting. it’s work that is very rewarding when complete. it’s quite another thing when you’re ankle deep in plaster and have to keep going. it’s discouraging when you discover a entire days worth of unexpected labor, but I persevere.
i just completed all steps in my bedroom. i decided to do one room all at once, so i could see how things are done. if i make mistakes, i figure out how i made them and how i can improve the next time around. i think i got it. i feel confident moving forward and my recessive butch side is in overdrive.
