Amie and I worked so hard this week!
We had 14ft ceilings in our house and this posed a massive problem for us in the begining. How were we going to paint the house? And safely?
We didn’t feel right about ladders so we hired scaffolding and spray painted (“bombed” as we like to say) the whole room. We did do a tv scene with me spraying the room in my ‘onesie’, face mask and goggles, but I don’t think you will get to see it.
Amie is on the scaffolding sanding all the plaster after the plaster had ‘stopped-up’ (new term I learnt!).
Here are some pictures though…
Noice Katrina! Ummm front wedgey?
Sneaky peek!
Good work Amie!

Scaffolding sounds like a good idea. I fell off a ladder painting our high ceilings and I tell you, it wasn't fun. When I woke up I didn't remember things, it was very stressful!
Poor Aimie – I have decided that plastering, including the sanding, is THE worst renovating job. Horrible! I get a nervous tick just thinking about it.
Ps love the wedgie!!
Pps room is looking great!!

A fan in our house specifically Annie? Because there is no cooling otherwise. The house is enviro friendly and you'll see good airflow in rest of house, but no ventilation and cooling up that end.
And Amie being calmer??? You ain't seen nothing yet! Haha!!
Ange @ A Cream Cottage
It's looking so good. I'm loving watching you girls. Can't wait to see the room reveal tonight!!! Ange
