Drip - Less Paint

G' Morning Everybody : )

I've been painting my bedroom and realized 
I have a great tip that you guys may not have thought about.
I learned this by Ms. Martha (Stewart) about 10 years ago 
and have used it every time I paint.

All ya need is a hammer, an awe (or a long thick nail) and of course your paint.
Doesn't matter the size paint can (it won't work on a sample size, lol).

Just puncture along the rim of the paint can (the canal part)


I usually do about 8 of em'. Again it depends on the paint can size

There ya go ... no more drips down the side of your can : )

Now, I know some of you guys are saying to yourselves,
"Why didn't I think of that?"
: )

I'm partying at:
 Serenity Now
