How To

Today's post is informative. How to paint a blue stripe in Timothy's room.
1. Trace border with a pencil. Spray border with wallpaper remover. Peel off border.

2. Wipe wall with a towel. Put green frog tape on the lines that you traced. Seal the tape by painting it with the wall color that is underneath it. Let it dry.

3. Paint primer between the tape stripes. Let it dry.

4. Paint wall color over primer. Let it dry.

5. Peel off frog tape by pulling it off at an angle - toward the color you just painted.
6. Viola! A stripe with ZERO touch-ups. Yay!
 
(Here's an awesome bookshelf that Brian built and I painted today.)

And this little helper was MESSY! That's primer on his belly. :)
