Nursery Day 3

Today we plastered the walls and filled in all the holes with new drywall. We also put the first coat of plaster on the ceiling which had 50+ holes in it from where a family in the past had put up those ugly ceiling tiles. In a few days, we will finish plastering the ceiling, sand the walls (and ceiling after the second coat of plaster dries).

A few holes that need to be fixed and then plastered...


New drywall is in place (not the way a professional would do it but it works for us) and ready to be plastered...


Plastered over the new drywall...


This pic shows a few of the holes in the wall (most of them you cannot see, there were so many). The previous owners were not careful with the house.


One of the walls with mesh tape and plaster...


Can't really tell in the pic but there are a TON of holes and cracks in the ceiling that we had to mesh tape and plaster (the dark black lines on the ceiling are pencil marks when the ceiling tiles were installed)...

Hopefully the next step is to sand the walls and ceiling so we can paint the room!
