I had no idea what I was in for with this property, and we’re probably in over our heads in a lot of areas.
A list for the ages!Just a basic list that I could use year after year for all of the “stuff” that we need to remember to pack.
Up until now, I’ve usually just set out a few bins and thrown stuff in there as I think of it over the course of a few weeks.I scoured the web and looked at everyone else’s lists that I could find to help trigger my memory for things that I wanted to bring.It was actually super helpful to see what everyone else liked to take along, so I thought it might be nice to share my list with you.
I took it one step further though and made it a bit cuter and made it printable as well.Nothing makes packing easier than having a cute list, right?
Well, besides having someone else do it all for you.
That’s not happening, sorry!.The other thing wrong with this approach (2) is that it didn’t end up looking so great for an after paint job kind of finish.
Especially not when you’re on the boarder of two different colors.There was kind of a lightly blended shiny white line instead of a nice crisp clean line.
I took the same approach as I usually take when I do something like a bath tub and I taped off where I wanted my line to end.Then I put down the bead of caulking (sometimes, I put a bit too much, obviously) and smoothed it out.
