Good quality paint doesn’t need primer unless it’s an unpainted surface

I wouldn’t even take the nails out, just paint around them with a paintbrush, and that way everything will go right back up the way it was. I’ve painted my entire house and that’s what I did.

Be sure to take before photos of every wall. You may not plan to use all the same decor, but before photos will help when you finish painting. 🙂

Oh girl go get an edging tool for painting. It will save from all the taping. You will only have to tape the tight edges. We work smarter and not harder around here.

If those tiles are going back up, do not fill the holes. That’s just double work

Don’t fill holes if you are going to put them back! Only fill holes you no longer need! I feel your pain as I am in the middle of doing the same..

Painting and trim is no joke. Trim is expensive!

Yeah, when people say it's "just paint " if you don't like it just pick another color 🙄 It's sooooo much work 🙄

Green frog tape instead of the blue tape. It’s so much better!!!Trust me on this as an avid dyi-er.

You get the paint and primer together so you don’t have to primer

Buy a good trim brush and you wont need to do the blue paint.

When I had my living room painted I put minimal things on the wall after. My walls were picture frame paneling and we painted it white. It looks better without all the decor I had before!

Clean slate✅👍🏼✍🏼 Then maybe put everything up gradually with SPACE that doesn’t need to be filled. The TILE SLATES can be placed somewhere else…You can get a free standing room divider that can display the slates…on both sides!

I painted my entire home many years ago and I said never again! I will hire it out if I ever decide to make a change again. 🤣

Before you paint, make sure you paint the new color in sunlight. It WILL be a different color. There is paint with primer already in it, two coats max.
