More painting in the dark

Jason started his second job tonight and is painting the louvre cupboard doors in the garage. He's wearing his hi-vis uniform, probably to illuminate the night time painting. 

Apparently, so I've been told by the man himself, wearing long sleeves and pants makes it easier for Jason to wash up afterwards. He used  to have to pick paint out of his chest hairs when he went shirtless. Our water bill has reduced substantially in the last quarter.

Fun, fun, fun at the Sow's Ear.

  1. When we first moved into the farmhouse, heavy with double child, the husband undertook the painting of some louvred cupboard doors on his own. They involved several coats and were fiddly and time consuming. Luckily Jason is a painting master by now.

  3. I vaguely remember us painting louvres in one of our past houses and from memory it was one of the least fun things I've ever painted :-)

  10. I managed to do one coat on louvered doors - 5 years later still haven't managed to second coat. I just don't look too closely!
