Downstairs Hallway: Part 5

Wow, just finish that hallway! It is just a hallway after all!!  That is what you are thinking right?  Well remember, I can only do projects while the baby naps!  So it takes like 100x as much as it normally would!  Ok, maybe not that long but you get the picture.

Sooooo,  I don't know what I dislike more; taping or taking the tape off.  I thought it was just going to be super easy and come right now.  WRONG. It totally sucks.

 

Stupid tape.  It keeps ripping and getting stuck on the upper-ledge-deal of the trim.  Tape, you are making me very angry.  Very, very angry.  And then when I do manage to rip it off all the way, this happens.

What is that little speck of paint?  It is NOT supposed to be there.  Why did I spend hours and hours taping it all up if it was going to leak through?!?!  I realize that nobody goes down this hallway except for me and this tiny speck is on the laundry room side of the doorway, and it is tiny and no one will see it.  But it annoys me.  So angry. 

Now I need new trim.  Well, I want new trim everywhere anyway.  But might be a little tricky to convince Grumpy of that one....  Maybe I will 'accidently' get pain on the trim everywhere.

Yes, here I am carefully painting around the light switch where the tape covered too much and there was a white speck of the old paint. I think you are supposed to take these covers off while you paint. Well, I didn't so now I will fix all the stupid little specks.  Well the ones I can.

Stupid f'ing tape.

So this is how far the shelf would stick out. Hmm. I don't know. I will think more on that one. I need to be able to walk down that hallway carrying the laundry basket.  I might end of putting that shelf in the laundry room and finding something else for that wall.  I'll let you know what I decide.  Mm'k? 

Now!  On to the super-duper-awesome idea I had for that other wall!!!  It turned out so cute. So stinking cute!!! 

Actually I lied.  This post is long enough I will save it for next time.  So cute. It is so cute.

Kisses~

Are you really mad at me for not sharing the cute, cute, cute (did I mention cute) idea I have for the other wall?  Want to take a guess at what you think it is?
