We started with
painting the part of the house that couldn't be seen from the road.
Chip painted several walls at a time,
first cutting in, then priming, then cutting in the teal stripe with
two coats,
then cutting in the soft salmon
stripe with two coats, and then cutting in the melody blue color and
rolling
the walls twice. We're really
excited when we finished painting the first section of the house.
Chip had to cut in
three covered patios and another two uncovered patios. Chip loved engineering the
scaffolding...his own personal Lego set...and he doesn't even like
heights!
We didn't have enough scaffolding to be efficient, but we got the job
done!
It was really windy when we started the last section of the house so
Chip was dotted with paint.
We were getting
ready for a cruise vacation, so Chip worked like a demon to finish the
house.
We had very little
rain, which enabled Chip to paint almost every day.
Chip is thrilled with the completion of this 10-week job!
We're
happy with the color of the house; it is aqua, but can look blue or
green depending on the sun's reflection.
There is a small salmon colored stripe under the
larger Teal border, but it isn't visible until you are close to the
house. This
