8 Best DIY Tips and Hacks
I just wanted to share some of the BEST DIY tips and hacks with you guys that I have learned throughout the last few years! These have made some diy projects a little easier.
Number 1
Baby Wipes and Caulking – It is that easy. I usually use pamper baby wipes to wipe my caulk smooth. No more using your finger and cleaning it every minute.
Number 2
To caulk in the cracks I put a wipe over a butter knife and smooth it out.
Number 3
Number 4
If you are putting an accent wall in or board and batten paint the wall the color you want first. It makes painting after you put the boards up a lot quicker and easier.
Number 5
Sometimes you just want a light in a certain spot, but you don’t have it wired for a light. There is a hack for that. All you need battery powered light, gorilla glue and a screw in PVC that fits where the light bulb goes. You just glue that PVC to the pack of the light and then screw it in. Done!
Number 6
Opening Caulk – Did you know your caulk gun has everything you need on it to open it? I just found this out a few years ago. There is a hole on the handle for cutting it open. You just stick it in there and squeeze the handle to open it. Then there is a metal needle thing to puncture it as well on the gun. Who knew right?!
Number 7
Paint spilling over the lip of your paint can because you poured it out? I have a fix for that. Make some holes with a nail and hammer and it will drain itself back into the can.
Number 8
Did you know that your broom stick could be screwed into your paint roller? This is true and now you can paint that ceiling!
