Yay! A productive day! I got the living room ceiling primed & 1 coat of paint, thanks Pete for the tips...! You keep telling me you love painting but never pick up a brush!? :)
It's funny the plaster on the ceiling looked white till I primed it!
Pete installed the pantry countertops....WOW! Do they look gorgeous! He will finish secure them & finish the last coat in place....they make the cabinets look awesome...I had caught myself questioning my choice when the cabinets first arrived 2 weeks ago, then the hardware went on, and they got better....and now with the tops- boom! they look awesome...! I will admit I truly wanted "inset" doors, however this feature added $20,000 to our cabinet budget....after today, I KNOW we didn't need to spend that- just needed Pete Spadone talent & reclaimed southern pine!

both pics of our right side of butler's pantry....(um, when is the "butler" showing up?) :) I CANNOT wait to see our Fiesta Ware dishes in this plate rack, well that's if I can get them in there before Scott gets pigeons in this look a lot like pigeon loft! |

| left side of pantry with open shelving & our wine fridge...wine rack to be built by Scott above fridge....(likely w/ Pete & Theron's guidance! :)!! ) |
We set our tub into place, in preperation for plumbers tomorrow (cross your fingers!) oh my!! This pic says it all- wow!
& yes Jodie, Scott was "put to work" again today! :) I bought him a "present"....a great scaper...and off he went! Such simple things....lol! (this pic was actually prior to his gift)....

| as you can see in this pic, the plaster is taking its time drying, I am sure in part to cold temps...the plaster has to turn a lovely white before its painting time, so you will see me jumping here & there painting due to drying/setting being ready in different areas. |
Countertops look awesome! That Spadone does some not-too-shabby work. :)
