When I walked into the dining room Sunday, I noticed something different. A bunch of ceiling tiles were stacked on the table and some were on the floor. They fell from the ceiling when my husband came home from work. He picked them up and stacked them on the table. The previous owners of our house re-tiled the dining room and didn't do a great job. When we moved in, some of the ceiling titles were bowing in spots.
My husband and I were talking about redoing the ceiling about a month ago. But that was supposed to be a project for next year. Well it is a project now. My husband ripped down the rest of the ceiling tiles that didn't previously fall to the floor. After all of the tiles were down, he decided he was going to repaint the dining room. We painted it way back in 2002 after we moved in. Over time the walls began to get scuff marks and gouges from everyday activities. It is time for a fresh coat of paint.
Currently all of the furniture is in the middle of dining room. That was necessary because he primered the walls last night. Today the wall will have its fresh coat of paint. Once he is finished with the walls, the furniture will be moved back to its place. As for the ceiling, that will be on hold. We, or actually my husband, needs to call a contractor to coming in a put drywall up. After that job is done, we will be looking at new crown molding to add to the room.
Then finally, we can check the dining room ceiling off of our list of things to do. We have lived in our house for six years and we still have many projects left to do.
