Basement: Drywall finished!

The Drywall saga has been interesting. From extensive research and taking a class, to flip-flopping back and forth between DIY and farming it out, it's been 2 months of haggling with my inner lazy and cheap self.

Lazy won. My extravagant splurge was to bring in the Excellent Moyer Painting (a.k.a. Armando and his crew) to handle drywall.

Here are the results.

Good pre- and post- drywall hanging image, shows my favorite stuff, the guts of the walls. Sort of anti-climactic when finished, really.

Drywall hung and mudded. Next up would be a verrrry light texture called "orange peel" to make it easier to paint or wallpaper or tile or whatever.
