Well....24 hours makes a big difference in how it looks. It's not finished yet.....the goal is shelves.

Somehow or another my pantry never got completed when we moved into the house. Then it got taken over by horse stuff. All my canned goods have lived in a kitchen cabinet all these years. Well...now that I'm doin some serious canning...there's just not room for all of it in the cabinet. So....I told Mr Lilly....I want my pantry finished. So yesterday we took off for Lowe's and bought the needed supplies, which totalled a whoppin $46. Came home and started about 6pm.
This is what it looked like before.....just studs showin lol


Couple hours later....we had the sheetrock up....


So I got busy taping and floatin the seams......got all of it done first coat.


This mornin I got up and started at it again...while Mr Lilly went to a car show. :roll: Got the second coat up....while it dried I was painting all the lumber for the shelves...so that I wouldn't hafta paint them after they are put up....that would be a real chore. Finished up right before supper painting....


Another corner....


Kinda funny. I did all the taping and floating the walls in our whole house......Mr Lilly did the ceilings...(cuz I get drunk on a ladder lookin up)
That was probably 12 years ago....and it turned out just as good, if not better than all the previous tapin and floatin I did in the house. LOL

Now...to get Mr Lilly busy with the shelving. It's all painted and ready to cut the stuff out....and then mount it on the walls. I'm so excited....finally will have a pantry. But I'm also give smooth out.
