For the last couple of weeks I have spent every moment of daylight at home scraping and prepping our 1928 vintage craftsman home for a fresh paint job. And so, that will be the extent of my three-day weekend coming up. Because of the flaky Pacific Northwest weather this year, we are concentrating on prepping and painting the south and west sides of the house first, and this weekend we hope to get fresh primer down on the prepped areas with the goal to start actually painting next weekend - weather willing. One good thing is this is the second time we have painted our house. Twelve years ago, after I first started doing freelance work from home, I hand-painted the house during a September and early October. The paint held up well, except for the south and west sides of the house, where the weather really beats on everything. This time we are being more deliberate in our prepping work. One good site with tips for painting old homes that we keep referring back to is Fixing Our Historic House. ]]>
