Painting tip....

I have had this brown paint chip taped to the wall above my bed for like 2 years...
Seriously!!

I just could not make up my mind. 
Due to cabin fever or spring fever 
or sheer madness.

I just bought the stinking paint and did it...
I was only doing the wall behind my bed.
Which meant that I needed to tape a line.
I have heard a million things like buy the "Frog tape" and buy the most expensive angled brush...
But I am cheap...
I remembered reading somewhere about taping and then using Mod Podge to help seal it.

So I taped....
(with my cheap tape)

 I Mod Podged down the edge of the tape...

And let it dry....
(and crossed my fingers that it worked)


Painted and waited...
(while my fingers were still crossed) 

And it worked!!

It left a pretty darn straight line...
With only a few tiny spots that may need to be touched up!

And now I am working on a gallery wall for my room, new ruffly "anthro" inspired curtains, and accent pillows!!

You can also use Acrylic Gel Medium (if you are using waterbourne paint) found in the paint aisle at most art supply stores.

This is how my associate Wesley Virgin's biography starts in this SHOCKING and controversial VIDEO.

As a matter of fact, Wesley was in the army-and shortly after leaving-he revealed hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" tactics that the government and others used to get everything they want.

THESE are the same secrets many famous people (especially those who "became famous out of nothing") and elite business people used to become wealthy and successful.

You probably know that you utilize only 10% of your brain.

Mostly, that's because the majority of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.

Maybe that conversation has even occurred IN YOUR own mind... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's mind seven years ago, while riding an unlicensed, beat-up bucket of a vehicle with a suspended license and with $3.20 on his bank card.

"I'm so fed up with going through life paycheck to paycheck! When will I become successful?"

You've taken part in those questions, ain't it right?

Your success story is waiting to be written. All you have to do is in YOURSELF.

UNLOCK YOUR SECRET BRAINPOWER
