| My Basement |
| Fall 2006 |
| Woo hoo! Yeah - FINALLY! The first coat is done. Man - what a pain! I had to use a brush - one of those short, thick-bristled ones that promotes early onset arthritis...I swear, my hands were sore for a couple of days after this! That's ok - it turned out well! |
| Here we go - it's official: I'm done with the Dry-Lock. Thank goodness! It turned out pretty well - I'm pleased, considering the amount of work it took. All in all it wasn't too horrible and well worth the effort. |
| Epoxy coating - much like the stuff you put on garage floors - is down (almost!) Once it dries for a few hours, I'll be able to move the softener over and paint the last bit of the floor. You can see what's left on the pic to the right. Yeah - it's just about done!! |
I'm on a quest to turn my basement into usable space - hopefully a craft room that will
allow me to relocate a lot of my clutter below ground! So far, I've put down a couple
coats of Dry-Lock to waterproof it, an epoxy-coating on the floor and finally some
paint on the walls. I'd like to add a bit more decor. The area rug from Mom and Dad
definitely makes it a bit homier down there.
Next step: Adding a world map to the wall! Or - turning it into a rec room. Hmm... :-)

| See? I really did paint! |
