Squirt toilet bowl cleaner, like this Lysol.
This post contains affiliate links.I feel like kind of a chump.You know I love my new light fixtures and I love them a lot.
The thing is, any time that I’ve needed one installed, I’ve always asked Chris to do it.And he’s always kind of taken a long time to get to it.And then there’s always all the cursing that goes on whenever he does a project like this.
So it’s given me the impression that changing a light fixture is kind of a difficult thing to do that requires some skill and finesse..Listen up all you finess-less folks!
The other day we were putting up a new porch light in the back and I asked Chris if it was something that I could maybe make a post out of.
So he finally showed me how to do it as if he were showing it to all you lovely people (ie.Measure how fair apart your studs are in the frame that you built and draw some faint lines in those places on your sheet of drywall.
This will make your life extra easy when it comes time to knowing exactly where to put the screws.. Like this!.Drywall can be super heavy in big sheets, especially if you’re trying to bring it up a really narrow stairwell without breaking any light fixtures in the process (#AskMeHowIKnow), but try to keep it in a big sheet if you can because it will be so worth it!.
To help you keep the drywall in place while you’re screwing it into the frame, you can do like Chris did and make yourself some little holder shelf pieces.So smart, right?.
