Painting Part One

We've begun the long painful process of painting the boy's room. One of us had the bright idea to paint a helmet stripe all the way around the room, not counting on the level of effort required to make said stripe happen. Needless to say, it's been quite a bit of effort, and I've only got the black stripes up there now.
These (above and below) show the "Official Ohio State Grey" we used for the walls.
Here are the pencil lines for the stripes. Took me over three hours just to get these things up:
Then I had to lay out the tape for each of the lines:
Next, Kasi helped me paint the black stripes with tiny little rollers:
Remove the tape, and we have the first set of stripes:
Tonight, it's off to tape the Red stripe down the middle. More to come, fer sure . . .
