Great video! I am a general contractor and someone asked me how to paint a bathroom. I knew if I searched KZfaq long enough I would find the right video.

Here's a tip for the paint can. That valley in the can that the lid sits into. Poke some holes in it. Then the paint that gets in there after you pour will fall back into the can and the lid won't get stuck on from all that paint drying.

A good tip, instead of using tape to remove lint from a roller. Give it a wash and scrub with your finger nails, also leave the roller slightly damp. This will aid in making the roller absorb paint easier as opposed to using a dry roller.

Another hack for a paint liner is the use aluminum foil. I like the trash bag idea too.

@mrsashleyfrench 3 ай бұрын

Yes, I have definitely used foil before too :)

Hi Ashley! Just ran into your channel looking to do an accent wall on my own. You are amazing!!! Do you do skim coating on walls? If so I would love to see a tutorial!

@mrsashleyfrench Ай бұрын

Hi there! I haven' had the need to skim coat any walls yet. My walls do have an orange peel texture but I leave it be and do all my accent walls on them as they are :)

@carmenmendez7896 Ай бұрын

@@mrsashleyfrench Good morning! Thank you so much for your reply. I am actually thinking of doing the same thing, but you make these accent walls look so easy! They are so beautiful and give the room so much character and class! Definitely seems easier than skim coating my whole house with mud! 🙂 I am going to be studying your tutorials. Only thing is that I am afraid of those miter saws. 😕

@mrsashleyfrench Ай бұрын

@@carmenmendez7896 I was afraid when I first started too. Watch my "How to use a Miter Saw" video and I recommend starting with a small miter saw to feel more comfortable. One with a 7.25" blade is a great smaller size for a beginner.

Ok. Gorgeous color! What paint color is this? And what sheen? Also, your entryway white paint is crisp! Can you share the name of that paint too? Thanks!

@mrsashleyfrench Ай бұрын

The color is Mount Etna by Sherwin Williams and the entryway white color is just Pure White by Sherwin Williams.

Do you cut and then roll, cut again, and then roll? Or only need to cut once and then roll twice?

@mrsashleyfrench Ай бұрын

I cut in only once and make sure to do a thick coat on the cutting in that would be equivalent to if I had done two coats of cutting in. So I cut in just once, then I roll on two coats.

@PetePuebla Ай бұрын

Frog tape or 3M? Which tape is your favorite?

@mrsashleyfrench Ай бұрын

I use both but Frog Tape is my preferred brand.

How do you get the paint to roll on the wall, all i manage to get is a blob, took 3 hrs of hard work trying to do one wall, and i had to use a brush too, i was exhausted and coukdnt bear to do another coat. How on earth do you get the roller to cover the wall?

@mrsashleyfrench 17 күн бұрын

I'm not sure if I understand what is happening but It sounds like you have too much paint on your roller. Try putting less paint in your paint tray, then lightly roll your roller into the paint in the tray, then roll your roller in the paint tray on the slanted surface of the tray (where there is no paint) to get a lot of the excess paint off your roller. Then when you roll your roller on the wall, you shouldn't get any kind of blob or anything.

@Linda-rn7pg 17 күн бұрын

Hi, thanks for the reply, when I try gently rolling the roller over the paint it never really rolls. It's strange as many years ago I did all my decorating and used to love it, so I know I never had that issue before.
