You could start with a wider strip and fold it in again so everything’s totally hidden, but that’s not really necessary because nothing will be showing once the bow is complete..
Easily fixable though when I go through and do my last few touch ups.. One last little revelation I had: When you’re laying down your bead of caulking, you want to move in the same direction as you’re squirting with your gun.So that means that as you squirt a little out, you immediately smooth it over with the tip of the gun.
It sounds counter-intuitive, but it really makes for a lot less waste and a lot less mess.I’ve always felt like I should put down a perfect bead and then smooth it after, but there’s not need!It makes for a lot less unhealthy finger smoothing afterwards too.. Don’t forget to open a window as well while the caulking is curing!
This was a new one for me too, I have to admit.Oh the things you learn when you actually read the packaging, right?I know I already posted once today, but I just wanted to pop in and show you this really quick little makeover we did a few days ago on this table I found in our garage.. Actually what happened was that Kennedy came home from school not feeling so well and so I put her to work helping me with a DIY project.
Doesn’t everyone force their kids into child labour when they’re sick?.
Don’t get too worried, she only helped for about 5 minutes and after that she was mostly playing on her ipod and just popping in for the photo opp when it was time for me to take pictures of different steps.. Can we have a keeping it real moment here?So I just scream away as much as I need to in order to get the job done..
I don’t know if it was really my bug killing or not, but after a few days, I saw a lot fewer beetles on my plants.And now there are hardly any at all.
I trimmed back most of the damaged parts and look!We have zucchinis growing!
