Pro Painting Tip

Picked this one up from the real painters working on my house: Paint the hinge edge of a door the color of the outside space (hallway for instance) and paint the latch edge of the door the color of the inside space (bedroom for instance). That way when the door is open, you see the same color as whichever side you're standing on.

Oh, and always take the time to do good prep work... casings that appear seamless look so much better.

I'm down to just needing to paint the walls in 2 smallish rooms and 1 largish closet. My work on the ceilings, trim, and bathroom are done. Still no time to stop and take or load pictures... trust me it looks great :) I'll get some soon.
