Painting is one of those jobs that can go on forever; repair the walls, primer the walls, apply two coats of paint, and then run around fixing all the spots you missed. Maybe you've just bought a new home or are trying to get your current house sale ready, a painting party can help you get this done quickly. Debbie Travis has some great tips for organizing a successful party to get your home painted in no time.
Get organized: You've got all those extra bodies at your disposal, and you want to make the best use of them Start early; have all the pre-painting work completed before your team arrives. Make sure the pictures are taken off the walls, fill those nail holes, cover the furniture (if necessary), and lay the drop sheets. Taping off the edges of trim, doorknobs and hinges could be done now, but keep in mind that sometimes it unsticks if left too long.
