Ahhh! Ironically I'm supposed to be priming our entry right now!!! Chat Icon

Great color! It looks really nice. Ours isn't that tall, maybe 16 feet, but still love a tall entry, so elegant.

I told Gregg that I'll just do the lower half and save the ladder work for when he's home on the weekend!

We've been cutting everything as we don't know when we'll get to crown molding but the entry.... Chat Icon Chat Icon

nice color!

that cutting in must have been a b!tch!Chat Icon



Yes it was, I give DH so much credit b/c he did all of the cutting at the top himself (with his Dad holding the bottom of the ladder while he was up there). With the BM paint we only needed one coat with touch ups here and there, which was key!!!

i hope DH isn't afraid of heights!! how'd you get that ladder in there anyway?



He's not, he didn't really mind being up there, it was just a PITA to go down to move the ladder over, then back up...

The ladder slides down so it's really half that size and then we lifted it to the highest it goes and locked it into place.

Thanks guys! We will probably do the photo collage tonight or this weekend so i'll post pics of that when it's up. I think this is the set up we're going with (with a few more frames added to the mix to make it longer):

It looks great, and I am very impressed that you did it all yourself! I struggle with regular-height ceilings!
