So domestic

Life in a new home is full of domestic activities - so much so - that being able to make dinner doesn't even seem like that domestic of an activity.

Last weekend, we took on the daunting task of painting. I had a misconception that this was going to be a quick two weekend project, but after realizing that three paint rollers, one brush and two rolls of tape really can't tackle much - I had to re-examine that theory. There are definitely going to be a fair number of white walls in the house.


Some interesting strategies we have come up with to avoid the dreaded activity of fully painting more rooms:

Stripes
Square patterns
White walls

I highly recommend the stripe method... it saved some serious time in painting the bathroom. Plus, who wants to spend that much time painting such a small space?
