Okay, my first ever drywall and I know what I did wrong. I just didn’t think that small indifference would make it look obviously bad.

But here it is, I will do it different on the rest of the walls but I’m just gonna leave it for what it is: me acting like someone who can do drywalls and wanted to save money lol

Didn’t do the bottom part yet so I am def not done but holy moly…

How bad can someone mud? Me: Hm My wife: “Well atleast it’s done. Not good, but done and we saved money for vacation”

What makes it even more hilarious is that in my mind I was sure if I use paint that has sand in it it’s gonna cover that LOL. Fail…

    That’s what happens when you do it yourself. You notice the flaws more.

    I spent months redoing my bathroom. I moved a wall, re-routed plumbing installed a new tub, and tiled. So much tiling. I ripped some out I was so pissed at how it went in. I still see every spot that I didn’t like.

    After that experience I went into the bathroom at my work and looked at the tiling in there. The tiles directly in front of the unrinal I’ve been peeing in for 6+years. They were way worse than some of the stuff I was fussing over, and I never noticed.

    Give yourself credit for finishing the fucking job. Learn to not make the same mistakes, and go out and make new mistakes to learn from.
