this past weekend we painted over 30 year old tongue
groove cedar planking. mr d. is very particular about
his painting technique...he's a bit of a perfectionist.
so how do i sell the idea that i DO NOT want the wall to
look perfect? it was a tough sell...but i eventually
convinced him...as far as i'm concerned a perfectly
imperfect paint job is "the new black"!

in her post about her hand painted wall paper...
"if you look closely, you’ll notice some pencil lines.
I suppose I could have erased them when the paint
was dry, but they don’t bother me. The finished
walls are not perfect, but they are interesting
and add subtle pattern and they make me smile."

Your deck floor looks wonderful...I bet that was a big job.
ReplyDeleteI am with you on wanting perfectly imperfect. By no means sloppy, just not fussy. You get the idea...
