      Pegasi:I have painted 2 fireplaces.It does wonders for the look of the age of the home when you do doesn’t it? I used a sponge brush for the grout and a roller for the bricks.Worked great.

        I need to get tips for when I replace the bathroom window trim. It’s wood….in the shower….I’m worried I’ll damage the tile on the shower back splash. I need to replace the window first, but that one isn’t scheduled to be replace for another year or so. I have windows in worse shape that will be replaced first.😰

            My daughter Amber got her big tank she has been wanting this weekend.She put the stand together while we unpacked It and got It inside.It took 4 of us to carry and lift this tank in place.We drug it on cardboard in the house and had to lift over 300 lbs.I hope that stand built for it holds.Can’t wait to see it ready.

              I am finishing another house today.Complete make over.I really love these colors together.The name is “Reflections”@Sherwin Williams.
              Any of you ladies that don’t mind hard work but decent pay,think about being self employed?Try something outside the box,and it always makes me smile to see one complete.Don’t think for one minute that a woman cannot do this and perhaps better than men.My bosses no longer hire the men for inside work,they call Mimi😆

                That looks really lovely! Renews my desire to tear up the carpet my furballs are ruining and put down wood floors…

                  Megan,in my opinion,that is a great idea.When I tear up carpet…oh my goodness.When you think about how much of that you are actually inhaling,you would get it up.RigidCore Laminated Plank flooring is the bomb.It lays down fairly easy with a tough rubber bottom.A little pricey but there are different types.Tough too.There is of courses,regular laminate flooring,simple to lay.If your home,this really is an excellent alternative,easy to clean is a huge plus for me.My furries come in and out so no more carpet for me ever.

                    We used some as the vanity counter top.That is the wood underneath it.Not necessary on floors so no worries there.It is actually easy on your feet too.I like it a lot.

                      I wish I could help you on that but I haven’t tackled that problem yet.

                              I like how I got the bedroom painted, but haven’t done the whole house- or replaced flooring, cabinetry… you got me beat! Best I’ve done is patched holes in the wall.

                                Cabinets are a matter of replacing most of the time but you can repair with wood puffy,replace hinges and paint.You would be surprised.
                                The flooring depends on the type of course.Most is fairly simple but plays hell with your back and knees.The laminate is easier than you think except at corners/doors.UGH! Lol Do yourself a favor and buy an extra box for errors.Otherwise you just pop it into the next board and tap it tight.Don’t forget to stagger the pattern or it will snap loose everywhere within months of use.Guys just make us women think we can’t do it.Too hard.Hard on the body,no doubt.No offence guys but we can do it too😁
