Weekend Room Makeover – First Time Painting Walls, Need Tips!
I’m planning a mini weekend makeover for my guest bedroom, and I could really use some beginner advice. The main goals are to repaint the walls, swap out the old light fixture, and maybe add some shelving if time allows. Here’s the plan: Repainting from a dull beige to a soft green Changing a ceiling-mounted light to a simple flush LED fixture Installing floating shelves (2–3) on one wall I’ve never painted a room before, and I’m a little nervous about messing it up. My questions: Any tips for getting clean lines between the ceiling and wall without painter’s tape bleeding? Should I prime if I’m going from beige to green? The paint has primer mixed in. submitted by /u/Adventurous_Persik [link] [comments]
