DIY Home Improvement the Ceiling Painting for Beginners

If you are thinking about starting the home renovation then it could be quite difficult if you have no idea or haven't done any renovation project before. For the beginners it would better to start some little DIY projects for your home. Though you can even call the experts as well but no way you can feel that pleasure and rewarding feeling of satisfaction while completing it by yourself.

Getting Started:

 Before starting any DIY project start with the collecting or investing on the right tool for you. Start with the nice roller. It would be good of you to have a roller with an extension. You can easily paint the ceiling while standing on the floor or on the ladder. For the texture ceiling you should buy a think nap roller for reaching the bumps or the designs of the ceiling. For the smooth ceilings get roller with the sharp nip for smooth output.

Preparing the Room:

Now it's time to start the task. But before that clear the area as the area could be much massy. Remove the furniture from the room and try to clear as much area as you can for your convenience. It would be better for you to cover the floor tiles, ceiling paintings as well as the paint drops can result in more mess and in some cases can leave mark on floor as well so try to cover the floor with the old news paper of the cover. Also cover the door and window frames as well for more safety.

Primer Application:

Now apply the primer to the ceiling. It is recommended many times as it will help to stay longer the coat of paint and you will only have to apply one coat at a time.

Apply the paint:

Start by painting a 2 to 3 inch strip of paint after the primer has dried with the space where the walls and ceiling are meeting. The method is called the cut in line, and painting with a roller will be much easier, as you will have more manageable border. Start with the corner of the shortest length of ceiling and simply use a brush and a step ladder for this.

Take out the roller and start painting. Paint in a zigzag pattern for better coverage. This is one of the simple ways to complete the task all by you and save bucks as a beginner.
