Today's little project was painting the hallway and ripping out the old baseboards. Here is the before baseboards. Aren't they pretty (beat up that is) I removed them by popping a flat head screwdriver behind them, a tap from a hammer and a little arm strength. I will do a how to soon on that.

After with clean paint! I love the color now that I have a giant chunk of the house painted with it. It looks dark in some areas and lighter in others. |
Ali tried to tackle baseboards without any help and we will just say that Shawn and I will be working together to finish them soon:) You get a general idea of what the final look will be once they are done. I got the angles right but I used the old baseboards as a guide and they were the wrong size. The good thing is they were to big so it will be a matter of trimming them a bit and using a brad gun to attach them. I am great with saws and all power tools but I have never used a brad gun. I want Shawn to show me before I try to use it.
