Prime Time


The picture is of the kitchen...all primed. You can also see that our kitchen cabinets also arrived today. We had to bring a couple of the cabinets in just to see what it looked like. Sunday was a very productive day. Travis and I were able to prime almost the whole upstairs. We went through about 23 gallons of primer. It has got a light tan tint, which is a couple shades lighter than what we are actually using throughout the house. We did buy a paint sprayer which made the work much easier. Can you imagine rolling on 23 gallons of paint? No thanks! I did not get a whole lot of pictures of the paint because it isn't the actual color. It was definitely nice to see a different color on the wall though. I was nervous getting primer on the wall because that is when all the taping imperfections would show. We were pretty satisfied with our taping and texture. There are a couple spots here and there that we want to go back and fix, but overall I think we did a good job. We have a couple more areas to texture downstairs still but we think we may be able to get back on schedule just by judging how quick priming went.
