Paint

I've always preferred paint from paint stores. Earlier I'd pulled some old, poorly configured shelves out of the master closet in the house. The plaster behind the shelves was... not salvageable. Off it came and in went sheet rock. It turned out really well, but I skimped on paint from a big box store. I regret the error of my ways.

For the carriage house, we're back home again to our friends at Abbott. Much better quality paint. We're also going to be getting a volume discount - there's a lot of painting to do in this house. We've picked a couple of historic colors. I think they'll look nice. We're starting with tinted primer to help with coverage of the old color.
