Let's get crafty

Welcome to my new craft room.  Yes, it does need a little work.  We have wallpaper over a thin layer of plaster, and the plaster is over plywood.  Since this is a craft room, I intend to just throw stuff at these walls and see what happens.  I'll keep you posted on my progress, or lack thereof.  It will be good practice for the living room.

True Blue

The future Man Cave.  Imagine it filled with guitars and a pool table.

A little wax and a lot of work.




It will be a while before I show off pictures of the walls in this room, but the floors look nice.

I cooked my first meal in the new house yesterday, black eyed peas and cabbage.  Happy New Year!

This is the master suite.  These rooms look yellow and orange in the after photos, but the colors are Sand Motif (tan) and Cliff Rock(dark tan)

I went a shade darker on this wall. I really like it, even though it needs a second coat.
