It’s so sad that it takes house guests to get me motivated to do the little jobs around the house — the ones I can put off for years — the ones I can look at every single day and think, “I really need to fix that, maybe next year I’ll get to it.” For example, I have been staring at a peeling radiator for years. It’s on my side of the bed, and is the first thing that I see every morning. I always say that I will paint it once summer comes. Well you know the rest of the story…
I also painted the peeling bed while I was at it. It may not look like much, but trust me it’s so much better!
Peeling paint from a radiator is a major project. Most people send them away to get sand blasted, and then they can paint them over fresh. But it would probably take me years to sandblast a radiator! The bed looks great.
