What’s on Tap No.2
Hey there. It's not only Friday around here, but also the LAST DAY OF SCHOOL. And no one is more excited for summer than this mama. Something I haven't done before.

Yes, it's a drop ceiling. No, we didn't do it. Yes, this room has been painted recently but no, we didn't touch the ceiling. Yes, there was a leak many years before we moved in and the plaster ceiling underneath … [Read more...] about How to Easily Update an Ugly Drop Ceiling
