In this episode, wanted to get a good idea of what we needed to do to prep the house, so I grabbed a piece of chalk and the nearest piece of wall and started writing. The kids helped.
Chalk comes off most paints with just a sponge and a bit of water. Use the idea at your own risk.
I'm pretty tall, so all I typically need for painting is a small stool.
Beth's youngest brother David saw room for improvement on my idea, so he set up the scaffold. Lots of room for movement- much more efficient than my idea.
Beth's next-oldest brother Will could NOT be outdone by his little brother, so he showed us all how it was to be done!
And here's the finished product. This is the same corner in which I was standing on the stool.
P.S. Want a white board but don't want to spend the money to get a big enough one to use? Use dry erase markers on a window or a mirror. Done one the cheap. Yeah!

That's got to be a piece of phenolic we gave you if I'm not mistaken.
sweat. always good to drip sweat while painting. if ya dont drip atleast 13 droplets of sweat, ya did it wrong. oh, and dont put mustard on ham.
I wish I hadn't seen Will on a stool on a scaffold...the PICU nurse in me cringed...but the end result is gorgeous..and yeah, Jean's husband Jeff writes on his car window all the time with a dry erase marker while he's riding down the road talking...yall are pretty creative! Hurry up and sell your house and move closer to ME!!
