How to make painting less of pain: use the right tool for the job💡

If you have small paint projects coming up, like painting an accent wall, doors, trim, or even furniture, a handheld sprayer is so worth it. 

The finish a roller or brush gives just doesn’t compare to one you will get from a sprayer 🤌🏻

We found this handheld sprayer easy to set-up and use when painting some French doors. The overspray was very minimal which was amazing.

A few tips:
✔️ You would not use a handheld sprayer to paint a whole room. This one holds a quart of paint at a time.
✔️ Make sure you have a surface you can practice on (like an old cardboard box) to get the right pressure.
✔️ If you have a large bucket of paint, pour it into a smaller bucket first instead of pouring directly into the sprayer.
✔️ MAKE SURE YOU PREP YOUR AREA - this is key with any sprayer.

We’ll share the full reveal of this door (including how we prepped them) soon, so stay tuned!

This paint sprayer has been such a great addition to our toolkit. The last sprayer we had was a pain, so we are loving this one and highly recommend it.

Let’s prep a bathroom for paint ✨

I don’t normally help with this, but I figured how hard can it be? 😅 

First of all, I am not an expert or a painter by trade, but here are a 3 tips/products that helped me stay sane during this tedious process and (hopefully) protect this beautiful bathroom during the painting process!

My tips/must-have items: 

🎨 Always start with a tidy workspace. Shop vac the area completely so there is not any loose debris. If you’re using a paint sprayer, any dust, etc. will end up on the walls. Then, lay down floor protection. I prefer heavier duty floor protection because I find the craft paper consistency tears so easily.

🎨 I found this pre-taped plastic sheeting dispenser. At first, it was a huge mess because I didn’t realize that this dispenser had a blade and I was using a knife. Don’t make this mistake!  Once I got on a roll, it was super easy to use.

🎨 Use a high quality painter’s tape. I like frog tape. It’s super hot and humid here and I can trust it to stick. Also, it adheres to rough surfaces better than other painter’s tapes I have tried.
