-2 cups of epsom salts.
Up next, more white paint, installing the wainscotting, and then choosing some sort of contrasting color for the top half of the walls.The other night I needed a little pick-me-up.I was thinking about different decorating projects I could do, but then reminding myself that I need to tackle the bigger stuff first (which I have been, believe-you-me), but then feeling like I just wish I could be “done” one little room so I could actually just play around in it, but then realizing that it was going to take a little while and not to waste my time creating a bunch of decorations that just aren’t going to work in the final room anyway.. It’s a noisy place inside my head..
So then I came across this idea on Pinterest.And it was do-able.And would take about 3 minutes.
Not too much time to waste at all!.So I got to play around a bit without feeling too silly.. And then I got to take a few pretty pictures of it!.
I just wrapped a little 20 gauge wire that I had in my kitchen utility cupboard around a mason jar and twisted a little hook out of the end.. We have all these little plastic hooks around the house in random places and I still haven’t taken most of them down yet.
So I hung it from one of those..Or, if you’re a highly evolved lazy painter like I am, don’t.
Just let the leftover paint dry right in the tray and pour your next color on top the next time you paint.It works just fine!.
#5: Think Small.There’s no rule that says that you have to tackle a big painting project, like painting a whole room, all at once.
