i painted all...frickin...day

i'm exhausted. about half way through i remembered i hate painting. i have a ton of touching up to do because i wasn't exactly neat about it. also when you spill brown paint on the carpet and try to get it out it leaves a stain that looks like poop.

  • Oh, man. I'm sorry you got a stain on your carpet. That sucks! This may sound crazy, but some carpets you can kind of fluff up with a comb and then kind of trim it with scissors. Try a small patch.

    If I were there I'd paint for you. I actually like it. I think it's fun to a certain extent.

  • yeah i got a few drops on the carpet because the drop cloth kept moving and i was so over it i wasn't being very careful. after trying to clean the first one right away i left the others. i think it's easier to pick it out if it's one glob than when it's rubbed in which is basically what i did the first time around. oh wells!

    That's what furniture is for!  ;)

  • Stick out tongue funny eden, from your siggy - "you & me" ~ is right!! 

    I paint that way too!

    I'm totally like, "let's get the bulk of this $hit done, then we'll pick up the pieces later".

    Altho, I've also found that it makes for a spotty paint job & a spotty carpet! Tongue Tied

     

  • Ew I hate painting. Try paint thinner to get the stains out. I think you can use that on carpets.
