Renovations

The joy of renovating. This can be every homeowners joy, or dread. This all depends on whether the renovation is by choice of by need.

We started the renovations on what will become the nursery. They aren't major renovations, new moldings, new paint and some decorations. After stripping the moldings, I made a discovery. These "New" windows that were installed recently ( before we purchased the house ) were poorly installed. There is no Vapor barrier installed around the window, hence the condensation problem we have been having. I spent the day Sunday forearm deep in pink insulating wool.

The paint stripping is coming along, we have one full wall done. You may be asking why are we stripping the paint, well the previous idiot "oops, I meant to say owner" painting a coat of Latex paint, directly on top of the coat of Oil paint. Which means, that the latex in certain parts just peels off like seran wrap ( once you get a corner up, a sheet pulls up ).

What I am not looking forward to now is that, this was the window with the least visual problems. I am not looking forward to seeing the other window frames.
