Hey there friends, I’ve got a treat for you!

As you already know, I’m a blogger for Glidden’s My Colortopia site which houses a host of tips and tricks from the most popular DIYers on the interwebs. They recently produced a series of instructional videos with Lindsay Ballard of “Makely School for Girls” on getting the perfect paint job every time. There are a total of 7 videos:

• Tips for Picking Paint Colors
• How to Prep Your Walls for Painting
• Tips for Using Painters Tape
• How to Cut-In and Get Clean Lines (Without Using Painters Tape)
• How to Paint Walls (Rolling the W)
• How to Paint Trim
• How to Clean Up After Painting

The series takes you from start to finish and Lindsay’s supportive attitude makes you feel like she’s there painting alongside you.

Each video is well produced and straight to the point. Who has time for a long drawn out production when you’ve already got your sleeves rolled up and your rollers drawn, right?

Painting has great meditative qualities, but cleaning up used to interrupt my zen! I’ve posted one of the videos that has helped me most, “How to Clean Up After Painting.” I hope you will greatly benefit from these like the many others!

Happy Decorating!
