Progress on the fireplace
Hi friends... I am making progress on our fireplace makeover and getting closer to seeing my shiplap dream come true. You can find my inspiration for this project HERE.
So far I sanded the mantel down to bare bones and primed the dark stain. Brace yourself you are about to see the chaos that goes along with painting.
This was the first time I ever used oil-base primer and it wasn't fun. The odor is strong and the clean up was a horror, but I like the fact it left no brush strokes and it completely covered the dark stain.

I sanded the mantel using a palm sander.
