It’s all so easy, but when you put it all together….
First of all, there are two ways that you can do your caulking: before painting and finishing, and afterwards.Since I’d already done my painting and was just trying to cover up the yucky bits, I chose this silicone because I liked how it said “permanently WATERPROOF”.
That’s gotta be a good thing, right?The only thing with this type is that it’s super slick and shiny when it dries and doesn’t do very well if you try to paint over it.For this though, it was perfect..
The first time I tried to use caulking, I cut the little tip off and then couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t get it to work.Turns out there’s also a little membrane inside that you need to pierce.
There should be a little piercer sword that swings out of the bottom of your caulking gun for that.
Isn’t my new bath mat neat?.So it’s darn pretty.
But the thing is, I want more than just broccoli.I want lettuce and tomatoes and maybe even some honey dew melon in there too.
It just takes more time.And balance.. Just in case there’s any confusion with the garden metaphor, on account of the fact that I actually do have pretty nice.
