Another tradition is that sometime around now, one of us will think up a new house project that just has to be concluded before the big event. Last year was a fairly insignificant crown moulding installation. Drum roll please, this year I am proud to announce our holiday project is hallway wainscoting.
I blame nerd girl, Mrs. Blandings for this years project. Her new stair runner photo set off a chain of events which can only mean several napless days and sleepless nights.
I spent most of the afternoon measuring and blocking projected panel sizes and locations. I was having trouble on the stairway until I remembered stair panels are not truly rectangular. Hopefully, we shall be completed in time. We always are, but the added anxiety always makes for holiday fun.

Great project and the added anxiety makes it even more fun.
I'm still looking for a Chuck. The panelling will look tremendous.
I always do this to myself. I apologize for planting the seed, but bet it looks wonderful when complete. You can thank me later.
I do the same thing every year - this year I am fighting the urge to tell my husband we really should paint the basement before our party in less than 3 weeks!
I cant wait to see how your project looks completed!
Wait, is this my blog?
It was sugggested that maybe I could paint the family room book shelves this week too. I'll post photos later.
I just started reading your blog. Very interesting and witty. Good luck with your project!
A party seems to be the quickest route to project completion, Mrs. B's editor wrote about that in Spaces once.
Nothing like a deadline.
I'm impressed, I wouldn't get near anything that I installed or made.
KLS welcome, a very nice bunch of folk show up here from time to time. We're glad you are here. Everyone say hi to KLS.
Thank you very much for the welcome, Toad.
