Painting between the beams were the challenge with this area. With an angled ceiling, the challenge was "heightened" a bit more.

Taking a close look at the line created between the red and gold, you will notice the challenge of creating the line to match perfectly with the door frames. And no, the doors did not line up nice and perfect in this 100-year-old home. Do you see where I did the line up?

This wall had 30 year old wallpaper on it, with a glue on the backing called Wheat Paste. It was similar to Liquid Nail. Impossible to take off with conventional means, the only solution was sanding and priming it.

This is the wall with Bella and Birch applied to the walls. The walls were not level, being a 50 year old house, the drywall was no longer straight. The Bella and Birch masks this, and the other wall issues it had, extremely well.

An older redwood deck with a overhead cover, hadn't been stained in years. One coat of Cabot Clear Solutions stain brought back the redwood tone, with two more coats going along the edges where it had gotten more sun and rain. The surrounding bench was not needing to be done in this project.

A open living/dining/kitchen area had been half-painted before the homeowners gave up on their too ambitious project. A fresh coat of chocolate paint on all the walls, and the ceiling, a beam and acoustic ceiling nightmare, were all painted in this project.

Arguably one of the hardest staircases I've done, not because of the stair design, but the ceiling needed painting (Same color as the walls). Trying to arrange the ladder on a staircase to get around that ceiling fan, was near to impossible, but finally it was done!

A downstairs mother-in-law kitchen with a challenge of it's own: The track lighting. Painting around the tops of the light with the track in the way and not much room for a brush, was a bit difficult.
