I’m really not in a place in my life right now where I have any free time for playing around with decorations in my house when the seasons change, but I. love.
I guess I just started painting all the trim for the nursery a few weeks ago, and then I just didn’t stop!I’ll be sharing one project that I’ve done tomorrow, but for today I wanted to share a few of my favorite tips and tricks for making painting a fun, productive, and relatively quick experience rather than the long drawn-out process of time-suckingness that so many people have come to dread..
So here’s how I do it!.#1: Use Disposables.Wherever you can, I highly recommend using disposable foam brushes and rollers.
This doesn’t always make sense, but for small projects, or for projects where you really want a smooth finish with no brush strokes, foam is the way to go.We used foam brushes on our.
DIY wood floors.
recently and I love to use them any time I’m making a chalkboard.For any little mistakes, just carry a damp rag and wipe as you go.
Save the painting tape for when you want to do fancy designs or stripes or things like that.. #3: Don’t Be a Perfectionist.That old saying of “If you can’t do something right, don’t do it at all” just doesn’t apply to painting.
There isn’t really a right way to paint as long as you manage to get the paint from the can onto whatever surface you want it on, and it looks good in the end.How you get there doesn’t really matter.
