What a difference a long weekend makes.

Since we still have all our stuff out of our bedroom following the stripping of the woodwork, we decided to tackle the ceiling. Truth be told, I’ve been wanting to rip this down since we first saw the house, since this awful ceiling is guilty of robbing the room of almost a foot in height (and popcorn? Ew!)

Over the course of the weekend, we took down the drop ceiling, as well as what was left of the original plaster and all of the lath. Here is day 1 in 24 seconds.

All of the gory details and photos in a later post.
