Spray Painting 101

Spray-painting party @ the house with the big orange door this weekend!!! As part of Chelle's DIY & Upcycling (Thank you "E" for introducing this to Chelle) quest, no item should be considered "safe" at our house this weekend. There are picture frames, doors being turned into headboards (more on that later), cans, shutters, and much more undergoing massive rehab.

Typically, Kev does most of our spray painting. He's just more patient than Chelle in that aspect; dont you just love that about him! Chelle has decided to go this one alone, though, and Kev has done a great job of arming her with dropcloths and all the other tools needed to make our projects flow smoothly and our house/yard remain "graffiti free".

Chelle has been sanding like a mad-woman, and even recently got some help from Little Sis! (probably against her will, but we cant be sure)

Looks like everything is close to being ready, so spraypainting will commence first thing Saturday morning! Cross your fingers for us!

**Chelle used this very helpful "Tips and Tricks" PDF from Becky at http://www.beckyhiggins.com/. Check it out if you have similar ventures upcoming!**
