Paint Tips




Coming Soon

  1. My painting tips:

    1. At the end of the day, wrap brushes tightly in plastic wrap and put in the fridge. Next day bring them to room temp and keep painting!

    2. Put a light coat of vaseline on your hands when painting and paint splatters wil come off easily

    3. Invest a couple of bucks and purchase one of those magnetic paint can clip ons for your brush....SO HANDY!!!!

    Hope these tips help

  2. I wear a shower cap when painting my ceiling or high up, so I don't get paint in my hair.

    I also shared a favorite paint color on your facebook, w/ photo after liking your page. Wish there was a LOVE IT button.

    Thanks for starting this,
    I was looking for the Robin Blue and couldn't find it except in my head.
    Maybe for my bathroom, if I will the 50.00 in paint.

  3. To get the paint chunks out of a paint brush use a wire brush to comb them out.

  4. I've found that I can do a better job cutting in around the ceiling by moving counter clockwise around the room and, as crazy as it sounds, moving *clockwise* around the room to cut in at the baseboard. Are there any other right-handed painters out there for whom this works?

  5. Hi there, love this blog..really helpful.
    I was wondering if you can put a "Whites" tab. There are just so many beautiful whites out there..and i would love to see how people are using them.

    I don't have official tabs for every color, but if you look down at my labels I have a few rooms in white. Hope this helps!
