Enter Nicole at Making it Lovely, a blog I recently discovered. She has transformed her house from head to toe and is nice enough to share photos, tips and tricks that helped her get the lovely home she wanted! The best guide for me is her complete A-Z of how to paint your house. I know it sounds weird, I mean essentially you prime and paint and then you’re finished, right? Well, she goes even farther than that and tells how to prep your area and really do a great paint job. Check it out here: http://makingitlovely.com/2010/03/09/diy-painting-tips-tricks-and-a-step-by-step-guide. I will definitely review this once we find the home we want!
How to paint!

So one of the challenges I know we will find whenever we purchase a home will be the walls. Whether it is the unthinkable of horrendous early 90’s wallpaper or bad paint colors, we will be updating the whole house from head to toe. Yes, all walls will be painted and all trim (if not already white) will get a complete new look as well. I am trying to prepare myself. I am trying to get pumped up. The hours and hours of taping off and cutting in are worth the end result, right? Right? Man, I hate painting…
