Of course, we know they will not do it for a gift, but just because. Painting one a day just prolongs the agony and the mess. <br /><br />Do you know someone who paints well who would trade Christmas breads or cookies or whatever, maybe sewing for painting. I did that for typing. i traded my friend typing a paper for making pair of pants for her, AND i had the material for the pants. I hate typing that much. Now, i do not mind typing at all.<br /><br />I was going to suggest taking the doors off the hinge and using a small roller in addition to using a brush. But, i see that has been suggested. <br /><br />If you have drips and messes, quit loading the brush with so much paint.<br /><br />Practical Parsimonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08419071209412207674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809809639444040308.post-30345078927809556722019-12-02T16:59:24.746-08:002019-12-02T16:59:24.746-08:00I think your list is enough to keep you out of tro...I think your list is enough to keep you out of trouble. I'm a world-class procrastinator. Not that I'm bragging.
