Be Our Guest!

Well not really. No seriously, we don’t have a working shower yet. You can’t stay in our guest room! But it is almost done!

After all that sanding, there was unfortunately a thin coat of sawdust on my freshly painted walls. But a big sponge and a bucket of water took care of that. Then we rehung the troll doors which got a coat of white paint and satin nickel spray for the hardware.

After two coats of clear polyurethane, the floors are almost perfect. It will take another coat of poly with a brush to get the right consistency. The floors are so old, the wood is just soaking up the polyurethane and it’s splotchy in places. But once we do that, I can at least call one room done!

See what a difference paint and poly can make?
