Closet Renovation VIII - Drywall and Painting

So now that the tile is gone, the next step is to lay the floor, right? No.
It's time to hang drywall and then paint so that the floor does not get ruined during construction.
Here are the pictures of the drywall. No secrets to hanging drywall, just use lots of mud for a job like this.


Hang the big sheets

Cut holes for the light switch and outlet

Don't forget this side


Add more mud and tape to fill the gaps

Had to cut some more of the tile to fit the drywall. That made a mess of course - dust everywhere just to remove another 1/4 inch of tile.

See exposed framing

Cut custom strips to cover all of the framing

Mix the mud on the kitchen counter? Why not?

Liked the tray more than the trough

Tape and mud

Don't forget to sand

Cover all of the screws

Time to paint

That was fast

Looks good!!
