I have SO MANY unfinished projects, but...oh man ... I have SO MANY unfinished projects, but they're not particularly photogenic. I finally hired a carpenter to put up the ceiling trim after our great ceiling project, so alas, that one's done. It would have been so great to show the raw edges of drywall, the unpainted wall with patching plaster, the nails sticking out of cabinets where the trim was removed ...<br />It was like this. My ceilings are plaster, swirled, heavily textured, and impossible to keep clean in all those swirly grooves. Plus, some of the plaster peeled during a period when the house was abandoned, and my husband tried to patch it but couldn't match the swirls. Plus, the electric heat in the ceiling made big cracks in the plaster, which were also impossible to patch and match the swirls. <br />So eventually we put up drywall right over top of the plaster. Take THAT! But the molding didn't get done for years.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01839005732453303702noreply@blogger.com
