Crackin' the Whip

Someone has to clean these baseboards before I can paint.

I know it looks like I beat him then made him clean the baseboards in this last photo, but really...  He volunteered!  Believe it or not...

He thought the pink gloves were the best part!  :)

Brooke... :)  I'm taking it to the Antique mall, but most of the stuff in the antique mall is "vintage" not quite antique (Antique is truly defined by something more than 100 years old).  Heck I'm vintage, I was born in the early seventies!  I think I only have maybe 2 or 3 true antiques at the mall... :)  So don't worry we are just vintage.

Kat-in-Texas, I have been using a white that I had, and it was Ralph Lauren Tuxedo shirt white.  But I'm out now, and I think I'm going to go with Parker Paint.  It is a Northwest company and the paint is formulated to work in our climate best.  I think it may be a division of Rodda (sp?) paint, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

I was happy with the RL paint, but I think I paid more for the name than for exceptional paint.

Ok, telling me you were born when I was graduating from High School is not helping here! lol Not real sure I want to be VINTAGE either. :) I'm thinking you are just digging a little deeper pit! :) JK I am totally cracking up as I am writing this just so ya know! But if you were my neighbor you might get TP'd in the middle of the night! lol

You BEAT your child labor? ha. He looks totally into it!!!

Thanks for the paint color!
