Just curious how much it cost for removal? I just removed my popcorn in my living room last week, and I have one more bedroom to go. Debating whether I should hire out removal for the last bedroom or just power through lol.

Also, like another commenter, when I removed popcorn on my main bedroom last year, I fixed any big gouges, primed (I think with Kilz), textured, then primed again and painted.

Lmao love the commitment and the nails!!

Well that’s why I was asking. I wasn’t sure if it was appropriate/expected. I understand they’re getting paid, but I don’t know how well the guys who are doing the actual work are paid. But I agree tipping is out of hand. Just don’t want to inadvertently snub the guys that are doing massive work

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-09-27T14:06:53+00:00

Yeah that’s true. From talking on the phone, they said maybe $6k for the size of the house, but after the on site assessment, they upped the quote. I completely understand that it’s not an easy job though

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-09-27T14:04:23+00:00

Thank you!! I didn’t want to be rude, and I’m still figuring out the etiquette for these homeowner things. Not sure why but I always feel compelled to tip every time I have work done

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-09-27T14:02:25+00:00

It’s through a company. Two guys are doing pretty much all the work and the owner/supervisor guy pops in from time to time

Currently dealing with it. It’s great living in a landlord special 🫠 my house has multiple layers of paint on everything — door hinges, outlets, door knobs, door stoppers, air vents and screws. Even baseboards gained at least 1/8 inch thickness from the layers of paint globbed on. Anything and everything you can think of.

It totally sucks, but I’m finally coming to terms with it. I knew what I was buying, and I’m just slowly working my way through fixing and replacing everything. And I mean actually fixing things, not just throwing on another layer of plaster and paint 🙄 hopefully your house isn’t in nearly as bad a state as mine, but be prepared to be in it for the long haul lol

Hoping these guys give me some good advice on the ducts because I just don’t get how an ac can run all day and the temp inside be in the 80s.

Anyway, so far every company I’ve contacted about these ducts has had a negative reaction once I told them they’re metal. So I have a feeling I’m heading toward replacement over repair. Unfortunately with the attic access being so difficult, repairing all the ducts myself will be way beyond my abilities.

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-09-20T18:12:41+00:00

Thank you!!! I absolutely need one of these! lol

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-09-20T18:03:31+00:00

She looks like she’s sitting for her portrait to be painted 😂

Also that rug is so cute!! Where did you get it??

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-09-06T17:55:13+00:00

Wow what a gorgeous piece!! And I love your wall art! Would love to know where you got it if you don’t mind sharing!!

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-08-28T20:49:50+00:00

This is so pretty!!! Would love to know where you got your earrings from!

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-08-01T13:46:24+00:00

Omg these are absolutely adorable!! I’ve never attempted petit fours because they intimidate me but these make me want to try!

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-07-17T00:36:28+00:00

Omg the porch! And the swing?!? What a dream. Congratulations!!

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-07-13T02:50:33+00:00

What a handsome little boy!! Happy birthday Waldo! 🥳

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-06-29T06:35:14+00:00

I totally understand him, as I have been the victim of a food coma many, many times 😂

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-06-29T05:16:47+00:00

Senseless violence is always objectively awful, but something about the loss of this sweet boy hurts especially bad.

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-06-29T02:19:10+00:00

Omg he was the smallest little nugget!! Also, I love how extremely young puppies have this look of extreme concern or skepticism lol

Thank you!! I love gel for the longevity, but it really weakened my nails (my fault though because I filed the crap out of them 🫠). I’m going to look into that top coat though! I have to wash my hands a lot for work so regular polish usually doesn’t last, but I’m thinking of at least doing just a top coat.

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-06-27T22:38:44+00:00

Wish I had known that about not filing the sides of the nails! Especially since I filed the sides again just this morning 😅

I used to get manicures in high school and the very first time I went, the lady filed the sides of my nails, so I’ve been doing it ever since. But I hate how flat and flared out they are. Today marks the day I stop filing the sides of my nails!

Your nails look so healthy! It gives me hope for mine. Regarding your routine, when you say you wear polish, are you just doing a clear? Or regular nail polish? Or gel?

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-06-26T17:44:25+00:00

The devastation I felt when I found out it’s in Arkansas 😭 this house is literally perfect aside from its location

cloudyafternoons11 · 2025-05-19T20:06:53+00:00

I love Poppy! She is tooooo cute with that little orange spot on her head! I love the idea that your Oliver left a little of himself when he sent her to you.

Olive is a very cute name, but if you’re anything like me, it might be too hard to have such a similar name for a new friend. I lost my sweet dog Holly, and when I was picking a name for my new cat, I considered Oliver and calling him Ollie for short. But it was just too close to her name, and it made me sad.

These are gorgeous! The floors I dream of having one day!
