    Get one of those articulating wall mounted TV arms, the tv will be off the table and you can use it to cover the fuse box fixture in the corner by angling the screen in that corner.

    "no one has ever trusted me to paint", says the woman that drives the half million dollar harvester or tractor with thousands of dollars of grain aboard. Nothing like home improvement projects to bring a couple together/start a fight. Do like Grant's NE license plate art. To complete the room, consider a velvet Elvis painting or a tapestry with the dogs playing poker.

    greetings folks; an idea is: save your ceiling tiles by getting some more of the 2 foot cross pieces and add them halfway, then cut the 2 x 4 ceiling tiles to fit in the 2 x 2 holes. i have never seen the 2 x 2 tiles sag but the 2 x 4 tiles always do...............g

    Nice Job! White Board Tip: When the board gets "cloudy" from repeated writing/erasing, spray it with "Tuff Stuff" which you can get at the Auto Parts store. It's a great all purpose cleaner (Great on sneakers) and will get the board pristine white again.

    I have no idea why UA-cam algorithms suggested your channel, but I sure am glad it did! You guys are a refreshing wholesome hard working Midwestern couple and I can't wait to see what you do next! Who knew farming could be this entertaining!? A wall mount for that TV is like $15 and very easy to install and would free up that coffee table.

    Ceiling tiles are not a structural item, therefore never hang anything from them. Regular ceiling tiles are not made to withstand higher humidity areas, that’s why they bowed. Love the final look! Y’all did a great job!

      They are acoustic tiles, meant to reduce sound 'bounce' and give a slightly quieter room.

    The renovations hit home. I'm a milk hauler working 6-7 days a week and over the last year I've turned an empty bedroom into a huge master bathroom, replumbed the entire house and did almost all of it myself for the wife and I. 4'x7' shower, jacuzzi tub, double vanity, and it's nearly complete hopefully a year later to the day.
    We won't talk about the budget but we saved a ton of money and the two parts we paid to have done (shower tile and custom glass front) cost as much as everything else I did on my own. Looking forward to painting in a week!

  • @ericprater4017
    @ericprater4017 2 роки тому

    When I first got married I got sucked into doing home improvement projects with my new wife, there's this thing called "cutting in", so when you start to paint, you do all your edges with a paint brush going 2" in on both sides of whatever seam, edge you are doing, then when you break out the roller! Katey bar the Door! You just go up to that line and you can SMOKE your way through rolling on paint! Great job on your sale and your office project.

    As a builder in the trades for 50 years I appreciate your do it yourself spirit. On the other hand if you go to craigs list you will find retired construction workers who will do a great job for very little $ just to keep busy. You are aces at farming best stick to what you are good at. I don't grow my own corn. I do recommend some vinyl lock together flooring for your office as it is cheep looks great and is easy to install . I live on maui if I had known you were visiting I would have told you about some secrete spots maybe next time.

    Y'all did a good job, looks great, cool color too. Next time though if you use an empty 5 gal bucket to put the paint in, and buy a roller screen, and a roller pole, it makes it all so much easier, faster and cleaner. And its still cheap. Those flat roller trays are so messy and just a pain. Also if u wanna take it to the next level one more thing u could do to make a big difference is change those faceplates(outlets and light switch covers) to a brighter white.
