I was really anxious about all of that waiting at first, but I’ve learned to love those breaks in the action.
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.
I’ve also started using the mini foam rollers for pretty much every wall I paint too.So if you’re waiting until that day when you’re a “good painter” to tackle a project, don’t.
If you do mess up bad enough that it continues to bug you, there are always disposable foam brushes for touch ups!.#4: Use Tinfoil (Or Not).
Using a roller is awesome.Dealing with all the rolling equipment is not.
