Much of the summer was dedicated to converting a very, very cluttered study into an Ube room. This involved transporting lots of files and furniture, stripping the ceiling of popcorn, priming, painting the room several colors, taking down and replacing the fan, and decorating the room with various infant-like pieces of furniture (click on the pictures for the larger versions, if you are so interested). Good times ...
So ... the popcorn-removal aspect of the project sort of blew.
Like, really blew.
Minus the persistent electrocution threat, the taking down of the fan really wasn't that tough. I also noticed that many of my pictures featured beer bottles in the background.
Sanding the ceiling covered everything in white dust, starring yours truly as Tony Montana.
Taping off the molding sucked, but the primer worked like a champ, even on the newly sanded and bikini-waxed ceiling.
Yes. Pink. Very pink.
Step 72 involved painting alternating green stripes for Ube.
The crib was among the many, many things I have put together over the past few months.
The in-laws came through with these cabinets and some awesome drapes.
Here we see the new fan, spinning in front of the super-white, smooth ceiling.
The glider was awkward to put together, but super-comfortable and meshes well with the stripey stuff.
