Nothing beats this cheapest, easiest and most dramatic way to improve your house inside and out
For example, you may have a simple rancher or a small apartment furnished with flea market finds, but with the right paint colors your modest abode can be turned into a designer showcase
A wrong paint color scheme, on the other hand, can really cheapen and distract from your very expensive kitchen, date your brand new flooring, or make even the most elaborate Victorian exterior look boring, bland and blah
In other words, house painting can just as easily enhance your home decorating style as it can cramp it - the difference is all in how you do it
Their bold wall color choices, the before and after transformation, the dramatic reveal and how it's always so fast, easy and fun?
It doesn't work like that in real life:
⢠3 people painting the same wall at the same time? It will look exactly like 3 people took part in painting it (not a good look)
⢠Completing an entire apartment top to bottom in 1 day? Not really - unless you have a small army of painters to help you
⢠Getting away with just 1 coat of navy blue or red paint? You could but only if you are seriously myopic
The things is, home painting is all fun and games only on your TV screen
In reality, it is often a messy, time-consuming and frustrating job - especially if you don't know what you are doing
But not to worry, because..
