Painting for parties

We're having a party at the weekend, which has acted as a spur to Warren to push on with some things. The gentle conversation I had with him just before dearest husband got home having been away for a month may also have been useful! "We're already three weeks behind the most recent construction schedule"... You see what I mean.

Anyhoo, the aim is to have at least the ceiling fully coated by the middle of this week to enable to sparkies to hook up the electricity. The bathrooms are almost ready (although shrouded in plastic sheet so sorry, no photos of our LOVELY wooden vanity unit in our en-suite bathroom, with gorgeous square bowls on top and beautiful taps (*sigh!*) and apparently the pantry units may be in by the end of the week and possibly also plumbed in. All of which is very useful when one's parents-in-law are coming to stay on Thursday and are expecting to be the first sleepers in our new house.





















It looks weird all taped up like this, but I must say that the paint spraying machine that can do one entire undercoat in 2 hours is very impressive





















The draped cloth and plastic sheeting around the bath and cabinet in our en-suite reminded me of the draped platforms and models so beloved of life-drawing classes!





















The front door's quite atmospheric, too
