Before and During
These "before and during" pictures show the reason for the popped blister on my right index finger. I was yanking up carpet with my bare hands. Next time I'll wear gloves. It's a work in progress. I need to buy a solvent of some sort to use to remove the carpet glue.
When we were looking at this house to see if we wanted to buy it, I knew the green carpet had to go. So it's my first real house project. I will definitely show the after once I'm done. I like our back porch. It's always in the shade. It will be lovely once I wash the siding and finish the floor. My son was a little sad to see the carpet go. "It was the first soft porch we had," he said. But it wasn't really soft. "Maybe we should buy a rug to make it soft," I said. "Okay. A blue one," he said. I think he'll get his way.
Sometimes people put a thin layer of cement over cement to be able to add color or a design.
ReplyDeleteI've seen so many cool designs painted onto cement. I've thought about them for my backyard. It's on my someday list.
