The Dining Room...

Well Well Well... only the chair rail remains. The rest of the room is DONE. Unreal. I started this project on the June 4th... 3 weeks ago. Time flies when your house is in complete disarray huh??

Today I investigate methods of adhering chair rail to the wall. I wonder if something like "Command Adhesives" are made for these types of projects. Can you imagine? Apply sticker backs to chair rail, put chair rail on wall, when ready to remove chair rail... pull tab and off it comes. NICE. Don't think Command has moved into the Home Improvement/Chair Rail market as of yet.

I have to admit however, I would take anything over NAILING them in. I just don't want any HOLES in my walls. :)

Whatever the case, I am closing in on a finished room and I couldn't be happier. Here are a couple pictures of the walls latest appearance.


Did you see the chair rail to the left of the picture? Have to get that up today.

Do you love that I had my children hold the chair rail up to see what it will look like?


Ahhhh... remembering the before makes it easier to continue through to the end.

Looks good, Chels. Can't wait for the final post on this one. Isn't home renovation the best! We just met with our electrician this morning to pick out where we want outlets, cable jacks and phone jacks. Who knew that would be so interesting! ;)
