Here’s an interesting video that will tell you how to paint a wall.
This video could almost be a metaphor for life, couldn’t it?

Terrific video (but oy, that color’s terrible)!
I like that trick with the roller cover … I can’t stand the job of cleaning paint rollers. Nice accent that guy has too.
Hi Tuppy,
This is one of Vic’s favorite videos as well. He sees it as a metaphor for blogging. See Sometimes Blogging is Like Painting a Wall
I like the color! If you don’t have one of those handy storage containers for the overnight storage of the roller you don’t want to wash, a plastic bag will cover the roller and then you stick it in the refrigerator. It will come out fine the next day to finish the job. BTW - never paint the wall with a wet roller (one that you have washed), it will dilute the paint and make a terrible mess down your arm.
Oh my gosh. That color is awful. Good video though! I hate cleaning the rollers so much that I will just opt out of painting all together…
Painting is such a painful chore. Watching this video makes my arms hurt. Ouch!!!
I guess the only thing that would be more boring than this video would be watching the wall dry after he finished painting it.

Great Video!
What is boring about this Wally?
- it’s like saying my new article on tiling over granite splashbacks found here is boring, but it all depends on who is reading or watching it..
I like watching paint dry, paint drying means it’s tea and biscuit time! Lol

I’ll give you $50 to let me peel all that paint back off once it’s almost dry. ; )

Great idea for something (so seemingly) simple - the power of the internet empowering people. I’ve found cooking much easier when I see it on television on on DVDs that come with Cookbooks like Gordon Ramsay makes it easy!
Keep up the great work!

This is a good video for anyone who has never painted before or needs a refresher on how to do it. Painting is such a chore, but it is often rewarding to see how good your fresh paint job looks.
nice video
I like the way that today you can find videos that will show you how to do almost everything.
The other day i was looking for a specific recipe. There where 10 different videos showing how to prepare it.
Why are so many people saying that the color is awful? It makes me kind of mad, since it’s the exact same color I used to paint my room. It’s lovely and it really makes the room brighter.
I agree Roberta, the yellow is okay. They should have painted the door though. Good video for beginners that want to do it themselves. I can’t say that I haven’t done that several times since we bought our house.

The choice of color doesn’t seem that awful. I love the video.
Great video! My question though doesn’t pertain to the video (I know I’m sorry!) but was wondering which plugin that was that allowed you to pull in eBay auctions. Is it wp-ebay or whatever its called?
Hi Frank,
It’s just the eBay sniplet widget. I wrote about it on my main blog here: http://optempo.com/2008/04/05/adding-an-ebay-sniplets-to-a-wordpress-blog/
Great video. The only thing that would make it easier is a paint sprayer!
Painting really is a chore, but after i repainted some darker colors in lighter ones it made a huge difference!
Thanks, that must have taken a loads of work to put that together. i don’t like seeing my house value drop though. ha!!
i’ve been hearing a lot about the paint glider paint tray. does anyone know if this is any good? the video shows to use a flat tray. i don’t know how much of a difference it makes. has anyone used the paint glider paint tray?
i saw video and Paint Sprayer make it easier
Nice Video, Now i know how to paint my wall…thanks

The cool disposable protective jacket/hoodie is great. I’ve always just worn an old t-shirt and thrown it away afterward.
