It's All About the Attic...

We're so close.

The first coat of poly went down tonight. It was a brutal dance between me and That Man. He would do a section, dripping in sweat, and then I would take over, also dripping in sweat. It's hot as balls up there. (yes, we have an air conditioner, but don't want to put it in until all of the dust is gone. Plus, everything dries faster without it. There are fans running, but neither did anything for the oppressive heat tonight)

It looks awesome though. Darker than we thought, but still super cool.

Next is a coat of paint on the walls/partial walls that won't be covered in burlap. The rest of the material should be here tomorrow. But we will paint before that. We had to put a coat of poly down first so any errant drops of paint won't suck right into the 111 year old wood floor.

It's a dance. But it's working out so far.

Tomorrow is Friday, which is a good thing on so many levels!

Behave!
