Today, I set out to accomplish 2 things: stain the basement handrail (AGAIN!) and paint the stairway stringer. Because there are only 24 hours in a day…#OneOutOfTwoAintBad
The day got away from me when the hubby and I realized we should have placed an order for the bathroom vanity. We went to the site to get the order placed and the estimated delivery date was AUGUST! #SugarHoney
We set out on an unplanned adventure to see if we could get a vanity we liked in store or delivered sooner…No luck! After careful thought, we decided we would build our own. #MoreToComeOnThatOne
When we finally got home, it was time to get to work. The hubby and I set up the handrail in the garage and I reached for my sanding pads. I realized I LOVE staining and DISLIKE sanding! The amount of dust that kicks up when sanding is amazing to me. That dust makes its way into every crevice of every thing. The OCD in me went a little coo coo for Cocoa Puffs. And I swear that rail grew since I started sanding. Not too shabby, though…
Now that the hard part was done and I had dust in places the Lord should not allow, it was time to pick a stain that coordinates well with the new floors. Here goes…
Time for the fun part! STAIN! After all of the hard work prepping, it took all of 10 minutes to apply the first coat of stain. We knew it wouldn’t be dark enough with just one coat, so more will come tomorrow. I must say, I think this is going to look gorgeous when the flooring gets installed!
Well, now…we wait!
