With tiling the laundry room floor DONE, it’s time to move on to painting the walls! Painting is my favorite DIY…inexpensive and easy with big impact. When it comes to painting, even the most experienced painter can use a short refresher course. 

So with a painting project going on this weekend, I took a few minutes to watch a few of the Glidden “Show Me How” videos to be sure I didn’t miss a step. Short, sweet and helpful! 

One of the first things to cross my mind when it comes to a room makeover is paint color. How about you? Sometimes it’s difficult to know where to start. So many color options! Well…Glidden has some tips for picking paint colors. Great advice! In fact, the paint colors I choose for the laundry room are inspired by an area rug.

I purchased my paint earlier in the week. It’s my plan to get started this weekend. I’m glad I watched this video on prepping walls to paint because I’m taking 30 minutes to prep my walls which will include filling holes, patching and sanding…then I can dive right in to opening the paint can first thing Saturday morning. 

As you were watching, did you think to yourself “HEY! That gorgeous woman looks familiar!”? Yep! That’s our talented DIY friend, Lindsay from Makely Home! She is such a natural! So even if you know all there is to know about painting – check out Lindsay in Glidden’s “Show Me How” videos. Each one is less than a minute long and it never hurts to brush up on some quick how-to tips.

Wondering about my inspiration? Here’s that rug I love but don’t have room for on the floor. So a copy-cat design small accent wall it is. If you want to go bold, the laundry room is a great space to give it a try, right?
