    Hi, Anna. You have done another great job of drywalling. FYI, we use drywall tape on the seams. This may help to deal with some of the wider gaps. I love the wreath the you made. And… I love your chickens❤️

    I watched an interesting video about filming yourself and she said to turn off the auto focus and manually focus it to a fixed spot where you want the viewers to see so that your camera doesn’t constantly pick up on your movements and go blurry when you don’t want it to. Your shots of the Swedish forests are gorgeous! Love your can do attitude. You work in DIY like I do. 😊 it’s looking great!

    @eleephant9726 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Anna, I agree about using drywall tape for the seams. Add it right before and after you apply the joint compound and then sand to a smooth finish. Doing this will prevent wall cracks appearing later on after you've painted.

    I would pull up all the floor boards to clean the whole thing. Maybe add some insulation. Can't you use the plasterboard for the basement? I never get rid of material until Im done. Sometimes you can put a hole in the plasterboard and need to replace it. Give it away for free also. No need to give it to recycling. Someone can use it.
