HANDy Paint Tray
With summer coming to an end–meaning the kids are about to go back to school–my projects are about to get tackled! I love this feeling! I feel like I have put off so much and I am finally going to make a difference around my house.
My first step is to paint the kids bathroom. After tearing down 25 year old wallpaper I discovered that the walls are plaster! I was a bit surprised because everywhere else in the house is drywall… Well, the plaster isn’t in the best shape and I’m no expert with installing drywall so my plan is to use Venetian Plaster to give the walls that Tuscan textured look, while hiding all the imperfections.
Thanks to my friends at HANDy Paint Products, my job will be so much easier! This paint tray has some great features to make this project go as smooth (or textured, in this case) as possible. 
Nice grippy handles, to prevent the nightmare of a spill…
Awesome plastic liners that clip in place for a tight fit and easy clean-up…
And, my favorite feature… the magnet to hold your brush!
I can’t tell you how many accidents I’ve had just because I’ve carelessly laid a paint-filled brush on something that wasn’t protected. :( This simple feature is brilliant!
About Shelley
I get my son-in-law to do all my painting(since he is a painter)
I like to make sure I have everything ready before I open the can of paint. Including making sure the dogs are in the house if you are painting the porch. Boy that was a mess.
I actually just finished painting the entire interior of my home. My most helpful tip is to not waste the time meticulously masking window panes with tape. It is so much easier and less time-consuming to just scrape the excess paint off the glass with a razor after it has dried.
I let someone else do the handy stuff! It’s worked out well so far!
My handyest home imporvement tip is to caulk around all the edges of window frames in your house!
Also my cordless drill in my best tool to have around for so many repairs.
My tip is to keep up on repairs. Don’t wait too long.
