Okay, I learned today that I need help when it comes to caulking. Thankfully not too much landed on the floor and most stayed on the wall or was wiped off on some paper towel.
Recently, my Father helped finish put base molding in our master bedroom. He came over and cut it all to size and nailed it to the wall. He is busy with work and other projects so it was left to my Boyfriend and me to finish. All the nail holes were filled with wood filler and will be ready for sanding tomorrow. After filling all the holes with wood filler we attempted to caulk the space between the wall and the molding.
We are hoping even though it is dry we will still be able to get it off the wall and molding in those areas it's not supposed to be. Looking at the wall from a distance you can't really tell that there is caulk on it but you can see some places on the molding where there are some small globs. As you walk closer you can see it on the wall, and even more areas where it got on the molding.
There is still more caulking to be done, I think we will try a trick we saw on a home improvement show. The trick involves putting tape on the wall and while the caulk is still wet, after running your finer along it, you pull the tape off to leave a nice line and no caulk where you don't want it. I'll let you know how the next caulking adventure goes.
