Skim coated the walls in the breakfast nook this morning after we removed the old wall paper.

The ugly papered over cracked plaster ceiling is covered. Now I just need to paint it and install the chandelier.

Now on to installing a garbage disposal. I don’t know how people manage without one.

All painted and ready for the chandelier!
