90th Power of Paint Party… Tips

Thanks for Sharing!

Welcome Paint Lovers!

I’m in the middle of a couple of different paint projects, but nothing to reveal yet…

so I thought I’d share a couple of really cool paint tips I came across on Pinterest (LOVE that site).

Martha’s awesome tip… save your stir stick and write the color name and numbers on the stick.

Paint-Can-Trick

Wipe off your excess paint without making a mess of your can with a rubberband.

Rub some Vaseline on your door frame so you can close your door while it dries (LOVE this blue door).

If you have textured ceilings, use a screwdriver to scrap off some to make it easier to cut in a smooth edge.

Use a nail to paint to bottom of your chair legs and to let them dry well.

Hot water paint stripping

Cook your hardware to easily remove paint form hardware.

Aren’t those GREAT!   I know I will be using a few of those.

So what have you been painting???

Power of Paint Party Rules:

#1… This is a PAINT party… so pretty please, link-up only paint related projects.  I HATE deleting!

#2… Please put my nifty POPP button (you can find it up in my menu bar’s BUTTONS) in your blog post or a link back to this party somewhere on your blog… that way others from your blog can check out all the paint projects too.

#3… Share the Love… visit the other paint pals.
