DIY or Hire a Professional Painter?

Be a DIY Painter –
The Joys of Saving Money and Doing It YOURSELF.

1. Decide on one room to start with.
2. Prepare your calendar for nights and weekends to accomplish the task before and/or after work
3. Choose the color you like…did we mention there are approximately 140 shades of white?
4. Look for family and or friends willing to invest, or visit the bank for a loan
5. Buy Paint.  Be sure you use quality paint.
6. Learn what makes for quality paint.
7. Buy more paint.  Quality this time!
8. Lay down drop sheets and start painting. Not you silly – paint the WALLS
9. Spend hours cleaning.
10. Time for second coat.  Use liberally to cover up mistakes in first coat.
11. Chase cat out of the room.
12. Apply the now-needed third coat to cover up crap second coat and cat hair.
13. Apologize to your wife, husband, kids, grandma and especially the cat!
14. Don’t mind about the toxic cleaning solutions to get the paint off your skin and out of your hair.  You won’t get diseased just from one use!
15. Hire a professional painter.
