Bye Bye Popcorn!

That's right! We scraped the popcorn ceilings!
It was so...dare I say...FUN!?

We tag teamed it for most of the time...one of us would spray the water/dishsoap solution and really soak the ceiling down and the other one would scrape it away. We started in the back bedrooms and it was going SO fast! We finished the entire back of the house before lunch on Saturday! 





























See, it's as easy as 1. 2. 3.!



















That is until you get to a room that has been smoked in and painted over 100x. Yuck. The living room was NOT coming down. Plus it has raised ceilings making it extra hard. We left it for last and on Sunday I spent over an hour cussing and trying my darndest and ended up scraping like 5 square feet. We gave up.

Brandon said that by doing it ourselves we would save over $3,000! So even though we didn't do the living room, I'm sure we saved a chunk of change!
