Mudding, drying, sanding....

We are drywalling and taping the second floor. The drywall went up fast...but the taping takes more time. You need to make sure those seams are patched well. So now it's mudding, drying, sanding, mudding, drying, sanding, mudding, drying, sanding...until the walls are smooth as a baby's butt! The last thing you want to do is paint and see that seam look like a horizon, without the sun, around the room! Just started looking at paint colors...I love a punch of color! A tip...when you visit the paint department grab several sample chips...tape them together to make a larger swatch of color and place it in the room near the molding. You'll be able to get a good idea if that's the right color before you spend the money on paint! Don't be afraid to use color, it's only paint...it's the easiest way to change the look of a room! What's the worst that can happen...you can just paint it again! Go for it...it's just that simple!
