And everyone on the show is walking around saying “Oh no!

I measured where my lines for the edges of the aqua stripes would need to go and marked 3 little dots per line, then I connected the dots with my painting tape, making sure to tape OUTSIDE the stripes that I would be painting on.. Now it’s time to go ahead and paint the aqua stripes on, right?Here’s the trick!

I went back over the inside edges of the tape (where the aqua would be going) with the grey color again to really seal the tape down.Any bleeding that occurs when you do this will be the base color and will be invisible!The second part of this tip is to use a thin.

or even something like a q-tip to do this step.That way you use way less paint and you don’t have a whole big brush to clean afterwards.

Just a quick rinse (or a toss in the trash) and you’re done!.

So after that little 2-minute step was done, I went ahead and added the aqua.. Then it was time to peel back the tape!.For your home, and your sanity.. That’s progress, people.Remember back a few weeks ago when I was talking about.

ordering a slipcover.I couldn’t believe all the feedback and advice I got.

It seems like everyone’s got an opinion on this matter.. Well, I went ahead and ordered one, and I ordered one that most people suggested I didn’t get, which was my favorite.. Well, you see, I’ve never had a slipcover on anything before, so I guess the advice just wasn’t making sense to me.And I love plaid, and wanted to look at lots of it.
