Lesson Learned - Stripping Windows

Emma and I painted the guest room first--an awesome grey-green-blue color (best way I can describe it).  Then we took a trip to Lowe's and came across some paint stripping goo.  We thought it was a great idea to add an unnecessary project to our list of things to do-BAD IDEA.  It was a disaster, one window is partially stripped and the other is a gooey mess of old paint.  If you are ever tempted to strip a window, do so with caution and tons of time on your hands because it requires a lot of time and then you still have to prime and then paint the window.  

Emma and I gave Darcy some cash so that she could hire someone to finish the window because it was not a fun or easy project to do.
