Paint Touch Up

I am getting the itch to paint my house. Which if you know me you probably aren't reading any further because you have passed out. I don't paint.

But if the itch does stick around longer than 5 seconds then I am going to remember to use this idea from Living with Lindsay:


After she paints a room she puts the some of the leftover paint in jars and labels them. That way if there is ever a ding, scratch or hole that needs to be fixed she can easily use a sponge brush and her jar of paint to touch it up. No need to wrestle with the paint can and it is small enough you can store it just about anywhere.

Oh THIS is a FANTASTIC idea!

Girl, my hubs is scared. I told him I wanted to pretty much paint all of our furniture...after a long pause he says: "sounds like you'll be busy." lol He HATES to paint, I LOVE it and this Mama needs some COLOR.

What are you thinking about painting? That is if the ure sticks around...

Oh, man! What a perfect idea. I will use this in the future for sure! Too bad my little one doesn't eat jarred baby food anymore!
