Bathroom Disaster

I decided to tackle the downstairs bathroom a couple of weeks ago repainting the "rubber ducky" yellow that had a sponging technique. A few years ago we were into those home improvement shows and the host would say you want your room to "Pop"! Well, that room not only popped but I'm pretty sure glowed in the dark! The first coat of Klitz went on wonderfully but my husband didn't quite explain that Klitz is a little bit different from regular paint. You see, once it's on it stays on! The ceiling, door frame, wood floors and everything else it touches. You can't just run the brush under hot water....oh no.... it couldn't be that easy. Every tiny spot that brushed against the frame or missed the drop-cloth bonded instantly. Needless to say my little project is now a HUGE project. The floor is ruined and to quote my husband, "That is the worst paint job I've ever seen". Yep, the bathroom is still in disarray and I'm not allowed to paint without supervision! That'll teach him....LOL!!!!

Yeahhhh. You know, this just reminds me of how you and Dave told me not to use thumbtacks or scotch tape to hang up those glow-in-the-dark smiley faces and stars in my room, so you gave me this double-sided sticky stuff that is now stuck on there for all of eternity. See, every effort you guys make to save your walls only further ruins them. Haha. xD

No ones perfect. Some times the only way to learn is to some thing different. Lesson Learned. LOL!
