No no, that glass is not for drinking from...

@ChrisCudmore Lovely. I work for a public school district, so I'm constantly bombarded with emails, flyers, pamphlets, t-shirts, etc -- all in Comic Sans.
Aug 23, 2012 19:54
Just say no.

@ChrisCudmore "whit"... lol
Aug 23, 2012 19:46
@ChrisCudmore gracias
Aug 23, 2012 19:46
Great ideas. Think I'll run them by the wife later. I'm tempted to put some funny pictures behind the glass just for kicks & giggles.
Aug 23, 2012 19:42
I can't take those windows out now, but any ideas on what to temporarily do to lessen the garishness of those windows?

A: How do I remove construction glue from brick?

joshmaxTurns out a hammer & chisel worked great! Just took some time (just like anything else does)

Aug 23, 2012 19:39
was also:

Aug 23, 2012 19:38
@ChrisCudmore YES! It was super easy to do the brick wall, too. Pole + mortar/brick roller = (getting img)
Aug 23, 2012 19:37
Somehow I knew that would get stars... just not so quickly!
Aug 23, 2012 19:36
@ChrisCudmore I love my pole

@lsiunsuex Yes, but how many times have you had to re-paint a single room?
Aug 23, 2012 19:32
this picture gives me vertigo every time I look at it.

Aug 23, 2012 19:30
@ChrisCudmore *'d :)
Aug 23, 2012 19:30
@lsiunsuex we'll have wood furniture and other stuff on the walls to offset the white :)
Aug 23, 2012 19:29
@lsiunsuex I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem (indecisive-paint-picking-wife).
Aug 23, 2012 19:26
Since then (to my hesitation) we've also painted the cement floor ... white ...
Aug 23, 2012 19:23
@lsiunsuex It's going to be a studio/office for my wife & me. So white it is!
Aug 23, 2012 19:23
@lsiunsuex I know how you feel....

A: How do I drywall over a partial cement wall?

joshmaxWell, it rained pretty heavily the entire week while I was working, so I waited a day or two before drywalling to see if I could find a leak. I believe whatever was causing the problem was fixed. I think the mold there was from back when that window used to be a doorway. Here's my fix: The wall...

Aug 23, 2012 19:20
That wall is actually this one...
Aug 23, 2012 19:20
gotcha
Aug 23, 2012 19:19
@lsiunsuex didn't take it that way, no worries :)
Aug 23, 2012 19:18
I think this was with just one coat of paint - I can still see the outlines a bit, here. Now, they're almost completely gone.
