I am off next week. If you're bored, want to come to my house and help me paint? (seriously) DH can't take next week off, and I have to take the week off, so I don't really have plans. I was planning on painting the living room and dining room, ceiling then walls. They are already patched. Pics of my house:
Re: D.R.Ash
Wow, Andrea..
That is so nice of you to ask me..
I wouldnt consider myself a painter though... :S I have only ever painted a small section of wall like 3 ft by 6.. LOL
Still want my help?! LOL
That is funny you feel flattered to be asked :P hahaha. I am basically asking for free labour, beggers can't be choosers! Do you have good shoulders and wrists? (as in, no known ailments, tendonitis, etc) I wouldn't want you to hurt yourself. There is a swirl pattern on our ceiling so I think we may have to paint it by hand. You really can't go wrong with that. Honestly it's pretty hard to mess up painting if you prep the area properly. I have only painted 3 rooms. I only have plans on Tuesday. Would you want to come over on Wednesday? I could do the ceiling and crown moulding on Monday then we can paint the walls on Wednesday. Obviously I would provide food to get through the day! I am in Toronto though (near Islington and the 401) so you'd have to drive there. With two of us, we could probably finish 2 coats in one day. I have only ever painted on my own, but with two people, 1 person could be cutting in while the other person rolls and it would go pretty quick. I totally understand if you say no, it's not that great hahaha, why do you think we have been putting off doing this room? Actually the real reason we have not painted that room is because our TV is in that room and DH did not want to go for a week without the TV, but now we finally rigged up the cable in our upstairs media room so we can get started on the living room.
Anyways let me know if you're up for it on Wed. Oh yeah and we have a dog too so it would be good if you like or can at least tolerate dogs
