Out With the Dumpy Couch

Had that black freebie couch in the living room for a while. It was free so I can't complain, but it was ugly and uncomfortable. Found a great deal on a used couch in town. It's actually a pretty nice couch, and very similar to what I otherwise would have bought.

Worst case it will tide me over till I get the renovations done. I kinda like it though, so we'll see.

Accent Paint

Here the paint is about 1/2 done, so with one coat it's a little splotchy on the wall, but gives a good feel for the color.

Listening Room Paint

First coat of paint on in the basement listening room. Shows the potential, but it will definitely need a 2nd coat: Electronics room too: Next comes trim and covering the ceiling. A pretty big improvement considering it looked like this when I moved in: And until recently it looked like this:

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath. Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down. Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad. Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat. Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish. Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.
