Alright let’s jump right in…
Update
This week we made “quick” work of drywalling the fireplace. This was my first time drywalling an entire wall from start to finish. I think it turned out pretty darn good, if I do say so myself. I have one more coat of drywall compound and then we can move on to primer, paint, trim and tiling.
Here’s a quick reminder of how we got here.
