Painting in the basement

Well the arch is built, but the pressure treatment on the wood leaves slightly less than desirable green streaks throughout the wood. So Matt and I decided we would paint it, but with the below freezing temps, the garage was out of the question. Luckily, we have a basement that stays a lovely 60-65 all day. So once the wood had dried out a bit, we took it downstairs and got to work.

In the past two days we've completed the top and one of the sides, just have one more side to go tomorrow and we should be good to go. It takes 48 hours to dry, so finishing up tomorrow should be perfectly good to move it Friday!
