Interior Paint and Building Walls Tips: - Shower caps placed on the bottom of paint cans will keep drips from reaching the floor. Keep your shoes clean by covering them as well.
- When painting interiors, always paint the ceiling first to avoid splatter marks on freshly painted walls.
- Protect your carpet from paint drips by tucking a plastic drop cloth under the baseboard with a putty knife.
- Soda tabs are just the ticket when you are short a picture hook. Attach them to the frame with small screws and hang 10!
- When sanding drywall, use a humidifier in the room. The moist air makes the dust settle quickly so it's less likely to spread throughout the house.
- If you need to find a wall stud to hang a picture or shelf from, let your outlets be your guide. Most outlets and switches are nailed to a stud, and measuring 16" from the center of one stud should locate the next.
