) ) And now, ever since he shared, we’ve been using his little secrets…….as we’ve been painting our little hearts out, to give the entire house a fresh coat of paint. ( Nice guy……and well worth the money, just for these tips. While he was taping walls off and painting ceilings, and painting one wall different from the next, we were curious about how he was getting such STRAIGHT lines on our textured walls.Īnd he told us the “painter’s secret’s”. And while our painter guy was here, we sorta eavesdropped on his technique. We’re both a little woozy (and wimpy) when heights are involved……so we hired out for the tall rooms to be painted on the main level. There’s no way Steve and I were climbing a ladder to paint really high, all bent in funny positions. Right after we moved in, we hired a painter to come in and paint the vaulted ceilings. Yeah, painting takes a while…….but our motivation has been so different this time around. I can’t believe how satisfying it has been to paint this place. :)īut this painting thing has been doing wonders for the mood in our new home. Because tomorrow always brings more paint. I always wash up ( and yes, I take showers…ha!) but if it doesn’t come off easily…….I’ve stopped scrubbing. I have stopped caring that there are always paint spots on my hands, in my hair, random smears on my arms, and paint marks that have been all over the soles of my feet for days. We have been painting and painting aaaaaaand painting lately.
