Ok.  So you know I’ve been giving kitchen updates and well, this should be the post where I say, I FINISHED!  Yea…it should be.  But it isn’t.  I was finished.  WAS being the important word here.  But then I started to think you know that little area (2 foot by 2 foot) on that big wall where I started?…I don’t like how it looks so much, so I think I’ll paint over it and just re-do that one small space.  Then I’ll be done. 

MISTAKE.  Bad Mistake.  After leaving the painted spot over the weekend, I tried to re-do it last night with the stain.  It looks TERRIBLE…and I do mean terrible.  Obviously you’re not supposed to re-do in this technique of faux painting.  This is how bad it was…

I ran to my bedroom crying.  Locked the door.  Went to bed at 8:30 last night.

Derek stayed up for 2 hours trying to sand the paint off the wall with the power sander.  Yea.  Pathetic. 

I think I’m going to have to paint the whole wall and re-do it.  After 30 HOURS of labor, I’m going to have to re-do the part that took 10 hours of it.  A 15 foot by 11 foot wall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Cry me a river.
