At times I'm convinced you're either born with the skill or you're not. That's something that needs practice and so much of the finished look of the room depends on it. You can crush everything leading up to it but if you screw that it, it looks like crap. But when you nail it.....good times. Few things are as satisfying as putting the finishing touches on a room you did yourself.

I put myself through college doing drywall and taping. Here comes a horn toot, I am damn good at both. Where my heart truly lies is with woodworking though. That is a little more, nuanced, lets say haha.
