The existing grass should grow up through the soil and enjoy the nutrients, but plant some new seed as well if you like..
, here’s a little reminder of how this area used to look.. You can see the closet doors off to the right there.Yesterday I showed you how I’d painted out all the trim and panelling on that wall with the dresser on it, and today I’ve gone and finished up the wall with the closet doors!.
The first thing I did was paint out all the trim and panelling again on this wall.It took about 3 coats and soon it was really starting to feel like a whole new world in here.I taped off the trim around the closet doors and used a foam roller to roll on 3 coats of chalkboard paint.
I used the stuff in the can, not the spray paint, although I really love the spray paint version as well.The first coat seemed to go on really thin, but then magically after the second coat, it was pretty much done.
I did a really thin third coat just to be safe, but I don’t really think it was needed..
The can says to wait 4 hours between coats, but honestly, in all of my chalkboarding experience, I’ve never waited more than 20 minutes and they’ve always turned out perfectly.How to Safely Clean Your Grill or Barbecue.
The Easy Way to Cut a Watermelon!The idea for this post came to me a few weeks ago when the most fun basket of goodness showed up at my door.My parents had ordered a basket of all different chocolate-dipped things from a local store as sort of a New Year’s and also a “here, you might need this with the new baby” gift for us.
We had a ton of fun trying all the interesting treats and I thought I’d share some of the ideas and inspiration they gave me.. With Valentine’s day coming up, it gives us all a great excuse to eat a little more chocolate than usual, although I honestly don’t think you need much of an excuse.Anytime is a great time for chocolate.. Did you know that studies have shown that if everyone consumed 33% more chocolate, that world peace would be here within 92.5 days?
