The key to a successful paint job is using the right tools. Sure, you need a little skill too. But some products on the market today have made DIY painting fool-proof. One such product is the EZ Twist PaintStick by HomeRight. The EZ Twist is a paint roller that eliminates the need for a tray. It draws paint directly from the bucket with no bending over and no mess. Then when your roller runs dry, you just twist the handle for a fresh dose of paint. Each twist supplies enough paint to cover an 8×8 square foot area. With the EZ Twist you can paint an average of 50 feet of wall in about 1o minutes. It would take 40 minutes to paint the same space doing it the old fashioned way. It also makes painting ceilings a breeze with it’s ergonomic handle, extended reach and splatter guard.
But, every DIYer knows that painting a room requires more than a brush and a bucket. To produce clean sharp lines, you need a high quality painter’s tape. And the brand to beat in that arena is Frog Tape. Whether you are creating designs or just cutting the ceiling, this bright green tape’s patented PaintBlock® Technology will help you make any project look crisp and professional . PaintBlock® seals tape edges to prevent bleeding and eliminate touch-ups. No more of that flimsy blue tape that allows unsightly blotches to sneak their way through.
We know that we have a lot of handy readers here on NiceDwells. That is why we are giving away a Paint Your Own Room (or house!) Package. One lucky reader will receive an EZ Twist PaintStick and a Frog Tape goodie bag containing 3 rolls of FrogTape, a t-shirt and a really cool Frog Tape branded reusable bag! Just add paint and you are on your way to giving your space a well deserved facelift. Be sure to check out some of our posts about interior painting as well to get tips and ideas for your project.

I need to paint the entire house. We bought a small forclosed house and the walls are painted a weird teal color. At 610 square feet, I could paint the entire house in one afternoon with this tool. Thank you for the chance.

I would love to paint my living room because in the span of all five years that I've lived here the only thing that's been done to it is because my children took a fancy to coloring or dragging food filled hands across the wall. How's that for style!

Our house was built in 1920 - we bought it three years ago. We've done a lot of restoration work and now it's on to decorating. The next room I want to paint is the master bedroom - it's been way long since it was last done and it's dull and a little dirty looking.
