One coat paint new color over different first coat?
Comments (6)Okay, if you're still painting, I think you need some sleep! :-) First of all, it is always advisable to do two coats. You might get what you think is adequate coverage with one, but there will be spots you don't quite cover and YES the color does come into its own with the second coat. Palladian Blue is a far cry from Light Pewter. I think the QM will give you what you are looking for once you have two coats on four walls. Remember, there is a reflectivity factor when paint bounces off itself from wall to wall. The color builds. PB is a very strong blue green. It is lovely, but quite a departure from the gray you started with and I have a hunch that's not what you're after.

Comments (37)I think you are probably wise to go with your lesser choice and have the sink in the island. You loved the island plan and it had the sink there. Anyway, you are so much closer to the look you'd hoped for than when you first posted the plan with the bilevel peninsula. I tried to draw things out. I'm not sure how you want to move the fridge and how large you envision the pantry. So here's just an attempt in which I tried something a little different, because if you want a hutch looking piece I'm afraid it has to be wider than you have? I might have some of the measurements off from what you plan for that wall. Also, if you want the sink centered in the island you will have to have 2 ft on each side, which squeezes your dining area. Maybe you didn't plan it centered, though. I have it centered in this plan and you can see how it affects the length of the kitchen to see what you think....See MoreOur new home, seems to me, needs new blood. So...from square one.....
Comments (13)I so miss your frequent posts. I'm going to be moving to a special, :-) private, worm inn posting area since I have given up on flow thoughts that do not flow through and have moved on to worm inns that harvest a round hole straight down the middle ignoring the sides. Frustration seems to be the main attraction in Vermicomposting. It is for me. Maybe I will still post here. I don't know. I am a bit frustrated by posters who want the world delivered to their doorstep and have never read a sentence about worms ever. I feel bad about ignoring a few posts but others have stepped in. I hope they too do not burn out. At least here is not facebook where recently on the worm part a lady posted of having these worms in her garden that she wanted to get rid of due to fear they might eat her plants because they are organic matter. Well facebook does have that humor aspect. I feel liked I tried to run North on the under ground railroad but was recaptured. I think eventually facebook is going to eat places like this up. In some ways here is better than facebook. So that is sad. In many ways facebook is very, very bad and nobody should ever go there. On the other hand I have some good worm news in a different post. Edit: The area to start posts seems to be blank. Mostly I wanted to say I have a 5 gallon bucket full of harvest and cocoons and new, baby worms. I have not seen posted timelines of how to keep worms so as to not harvest away cocoons in vermicastings so as to retain them for worm additions to the system. I have not seen posted timelines of how to keep worms so as to not harvest for sale the most productive cocoon producers. Would it be better to sell worms not yet at prime or past their breeding prime for fishing? Are we selling our best breeders at their prime? Timelines for harvest seem to be needed. Glad to see you still posting Chuckie. I always enjoy reading and learning. I think your methods of brewing castings are being scientifically verified as time goes on....See MoreYay I get a new spot to put a rose help me
Comments (19)Plumeria....the teepees are made out of the same fence posts I used for my deer fence. Since I have so many teepees, I wanted them to be inexpensive and to match the fence. Also, i wasn't sure if the roses would do well, so I wanted something I could take down easily if I decided not to grow roses anymore. As it turns out, the roses are all growing very well! I am having proper tuteurs made of metal...a few at a time until all the wood once are replaced. It's funny, one of my neighbours made some disparaging comments about the teepees to my landscaper. That was before the roses started to climb on them. Now they look less imposing and blend in with the garden....See More- 4 years ago
