What a difference a day makes!

Three cheers for a productive weekend! Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!! Saturday was definitely my day to do some painting without a baby hanging from my leg so I took advantage of that and I "made hay while the sun was shining"!

I managed to get two coats on a couple of walls. I'm hoping that three will be the magic number and I can declare the paint job done! However, I have a long way to go for that. As I finished the second coat on the long wall, it was clear to me that my basement looks even more nautical with the white walls. I'm not sure how to overcome that so, in the end, I may not fight it. After all, this is about economically updating the house in order to have a nice space to live in until we make the jump to soundproofing and dry wall later.

The lighting down here is very strange too but I have no plans to change it until we make big changes. One wall has these two uneven lights so I'll have to get creative with that area. Here it is.

Definitely an awkward space. Working with items that you have can certainly test your creativity but it can also be very rewarding! I'm getting excited to start moving things around again so don't be surprised if that happens this week!
