I just found a little bit bigger grapevine wreath, tucked in some fake white flowers, and tied it up with a big ol’ white ribbon.. Wanna see more of my front door?.

Beautiful Lantern Style Light FixturesCheck out my fancy new half of a ceiling!.Well, we (I) took a break of about a month and a half from the beadboard  painting, but I finally got back into it.

And I got it done!And I figured out how to do it without losing my mind..It looks like it should be pretty quick and easy to paint these thin little strips of nothing, but let me tell you: It can get some kinda tedious!.

If you’ve seen my pretty beadboard and you’ve been thinking about attempting this project too, I have some tips for you!.Tip #1: Set aside a couple of days to get it done.

Make them “painting days”.

Wear your painting clothes the whole time and just plan to be a general mess.This is because the weeds need a chance to go through their life cycles and use up all the stored energy they have in their roots.

And our weeds have some big roots.One type of weed that we have, I think it’s called Hedgewood Bindweed, is supposed to take about 8 months to use up all the energy it has stored, but the recommended smotheration time is about 3 years to be sure..

So that’s the plan of attack.I’m feeling pretty good about it.
