Painting the Closets

Before I get into the meat of this post, let me begin by telling the readers that...

WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY MOVED THE WATER HEATER!

This momentous event was achieved this last weekend and took 2 days. Whew!

Before moving the water heater, I had to mud and paint the walls. I also wanted to install the floor and baseboard as well.

We chose not to install crown molding in the closets (it seemed fussy and a waste of time). We used a Zero-VOC semi-gloss white (Mythic brand). The painting went very quickly. We only applied one layer of primer and one layer of paint.

Floors and Walls

I installed some plywood on the floor of the closets last weekend. We've bought some Marmoleum for the finished floors in the closets so the overall thickness stack is a little different than what is going in the living room and eventually the hallway.

This is the color of the Marmoleum Click we bought.

I also got the first layer of mud on the seams and corners.

My father-in-law and brother-in-law are coming to visit in a week. They may want to do other things besides play with the baby (not likely). If so, the closet walls should be ready to paint. *fingers crossed*
