Now that the floors are finished, we’re starting to prep for painting. I have a feeling the prep work will take longer than actually painting but having a good foundation is crucial.

While we had the treads of the staircases refinished, we plan on painting the risers white. The treads are currently looking brand-spankin’ new.

The risers…. not so much.

(pre-tread-refinishing)

To remedy this problem, I needed a new toy. Rob got a new toy, now it’s my turn!

A DeWalt Heavy Duty Palm Grip Sander!!

MUAH!! Isn’t it beautiful?!

I ❤ power tools.
