And the shed work begins.
Today we started on the backyard shed revision. It’s currently a beige-y white with bright white trim. The floors are painted concrete. We’re color drenching a slightly different white and putting in vinyl plank flooring. Today we gave it a quick cleaning and a first coat. Tomorrow it’ll get a second coat. Floors will go in next week. I’m so excited to be working on this.
