DIY Home Repair



Ok, this isn't artsy or anything, but it IS a form of painting... I've refinished my bathtub! My poor tub was in desperate need of recaulking, and when I removed the old caulk, so much of the paint had chipped away around the edges (the drain had been chipping for quite awhile), I knew it was time to just do the whole thing! So I got a tub painting kit from Home Depot and fixed it up all nice... not as perfect as a professional, but not too shabby. I painted the tub first (its a one part epoxy spray paint), and it took 3 days to cure. So I've been showering at the yoga studio every day. And just now I finished the caulking, so by tomorrow morning I'll be able to use my shower again. Wahoo!
