    Kiles primer sealer latex first would have been better to paint before you put your color coat of paint over that wood?
    Was thinking that wood over the ship lap was put on as a form of insulation as maybe the wind blow through the shiplap in the winter??
    So excited for them that you are doing this for them 💗

    Don't be too sure of what you think people should know. My husband thought it was okay to hang pictures on the wall with HUGE screws. We once had a leak under our sink and he thought the entire sink cabinet would need to be replaced. I have a fantastic husband, but a handy man he is not!!!

    You may want to paint that transition board and put it back up between the different ceiling slates, where that space is. It looks so kewl!
    You also may want to put some quarter inch round or concave on to cover the wee space between the ceiling and wall out by the stairs!

You seem to be working from sunup and passed sundown. ...but it is so worth it to get it done before they come back. It is only one week, and hopefully you will catch up on that sleep soon. I have no doubt that this is going to be spectacular and they will love it. 💖☮️☀️

    Nooooooo! This was too short. I'm jumping up and down here! So much changed just from taking out the "wood". The day bed location bothers me. Could it be a Daybed/table bench? You know those bench seats on one side and chairs on the other? Just a nice narrow table. I love the view out the glass doors and having breakfast or dinner there woukd be so wonderful. Growing up we had a neighbor that had that wood paneling all throw their house. My dad called their house "Masonite Manor!" LOL

    Lots of fire wood😂. Please remove the blinds and put up curtains. Drop cloth curtains are nice and look a bit like linen. You can paint a pattern on them at a later date with fabric paint and your cricket. You are going to make the place look so nice and you don't want your hard work ruined by vertical blinds. I am currently in NL otherwise I would help you this weekend.

    My dad’s was of the mind that the bigger the nail, the stronger the hold. All of the pictures in my childhood home were hug with what he called ten penny nails. It didn’t matter if it was an 8x10 or an 16x30! It became a joke in our home.

    What a meaningful gift! Having just experienced the limitations of back pain, I have a new perspective on DIY. I've always been able to jump in and fix things that bothered me (maybe not right away, but eventually) and have never been so limited in what I can do. I'm sure "Mom and Dad" have had all kinds of things bugging them about the place that would have been a real challenge to do. Coming home to a new, fun, serene space will be such a lovely surprise. I hope you and Phil have time for a long nap when it's done and has been revealed!

    Elysia make sure to get some expert advice before painting the weathered cedar shingles on the house. Weathered old shingles cannot be painted, they can, however, with preparation, be stained. If painted they will peel badly within a year. The trim, however, is another thing. Cape Cod has a lot of weathered shingled houses that are beautiful. If you decide to go with a stain, I would suggest spraying.
