Smile Finally Got It Done!

Well, I moved into my house about 16 months ago. When the other people left they filled in the holes in the walls in the living room (there were about a thousand of them because he had speakers everywhere).

Anyways, I have been looking at all these white circles on my brown wall since I moved in. The other day I started taping and painting the room. Well, I finished today. Had to put two coats on. I used this roller that sucks the paint in the handle. It worked AWESOME! No messy tray, and I didn't need to stand on a chair to reach the top of the wall (the handle is about 2.5 feet long).

So, now my living room is a light green colour. Brightens up the room and makes it look better.

Now, what room will my wife want painted next?

Sounds like you are set right up to be outnumbered.
I think the smoothest thing you could do is beat them to the punch & ASK what your wife would like done next. Not unless, of course, you LIKE being CORNERED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I know she wants the upstairs hallway done next. Maybe I could just paint it a weird colour and then she will see it and freak and never ask me to paint again.
