Cool tip with the toilet rolls but you'd probably not have to even take the curtains down, just cut a line down one side of the toilet roll and you can probably just pop them in

@@amylaw3416 yes! Just get the coverage on trim….don’t worry about it getting on the glass ! Fresh paint peels off super easily….buy a $3blade (that comes with the handle ) at hardware store -draw a line down the edge of freshly painted trim with the blade and razor the paint off the glass in one pce. ! …it’s so gratifying.. it’s like peeling a sunburn ! Lol quick and easy , exact perfect paint lines (if it’s black and you’re worried) MUCH faster than taping windows! It’s actually better to get the paint on the glass ! and seal the crease where the wood trim meets the glass…. let it dry slightly then score a line down the edge (with a new seal made by the paint) before sliding the blade under.

1. use toilet paper rolls to space curtain pleats 2. for wall pieces with nail holes on both sides, use painters tape as stencil (with a water level) 3. buy pillow inserts that are slightly too large for fluffier looking pillows 4. get large pots for plants and stuff the bottom to make plants look larger 5. use electrical tape to create window cross bars 6. use matte or eggshell finishes if you want dark paint to come out as dark as possible 7. use rechargeable lightbulbs for lamps where you don't have outlets 8. to prevent paint bleeding when using painters tape, paint a first coat in the original colour and let dry first 9. use lipstick to stamp 2 points of reference, eg a handle with 2 screws 10. create templates from eg butcher paper when making a gallery wall

As for picture frames with a hanger on each side of the frame? I usually run a wire or strong nylon cord between each frame hanger and then hang on the wall using the wire/cord over a single centered nail. Winding a pipe cleaner around the center of the wire/cord prevents the picture frame from sliding over the nail or swinging back and forth after the frame is hung.

@Dbb27
@Dbb27 Год назад
Tip 8- you’re supposed to lightly wet the painters tape, let it dry, then paint. The moisture causes the tape to swell and closes up those gaps. Painting with the original color does the same thing and really isn’t necessary. Also use a very dry brush with the paint. Too watery causes seepage into the tape edge. Do a really dry brush, let it dry then use a heavier application and remove the tape immediately so it doesn’t rewet the tape. Frog type tapes aren’t meant to be painted on before lightly wetting and letting dry.

I worked at a place where I sold picture frames, and I learned that depends on the frame strength is the reason for the different types of hooks. Never put a wire through the two hooks on a heavy picture or mirror. That pulls the frame inwards over time and breaks it. I couldn't imagine a small child or pet walking by the heavy mirror when it finally gives.

Love the tip about using rechargeable bulbs. The batteries in most puck lights do not last long. Also love the tip about using cardboard tubes as spacers in the curtain. I would probably paint them the same color as the curtain. When it comes to using lifts inside your pots, using a tray on top or just inside the pot makes it easier to lift off the moss or whatever “soil” covering you use. If you have something useful under your plant, you’ll be much happier retrieving those items if you plan ahead. I like to just turn the planter into a table base and put a large enough tray or table top on it that I can use it like a side table. I do this by either creating a key hole for the plant or dividing the top in half with a central hole like a donut.

One of my favorite ways to hide cords dangling cords is to use a cord cover + plant. I used this with my TV cords... Command strip to attach the cord cover to the wall and paint it the same color as the wall. Then place a plant right in front of the cord cover so blend it all into the wall. I put my plant on the credenza and the top of the plant ends just below the bottom of the TV, so it completely covers the cord!

Hello Drew. I’m new to your channel but I am enjoying it so much. Thank you. I prepare my own artwork for exhibitions and it is usually a requirement to have two D hooks - one each side of an artwork, even when they are small. I take a length of nylon chord or a wire and thread it through both and tie it in a knot. When hanging just pull the chord up in the middle, making an upside down V. Measure from the top of V to top of frame to determine where to place one nail/ screw in the wall. This is great for artwork that for some reason doesn’t hang level, as you can easily adjust it. You can raise or lower the height of picture without moving the nail by hanging on single side of chord loop or by two.

Those dang D-rings- sometimes they aren't lined up on the frame, so all of the effort with tape still results in a crooked frame when hung. The older and crankier I get, the more I like just twisting picture wire tightly between the D-rings and using one hook in the middle, resulting in less colorful language and more time to rest on my decorating laurels. Great videos and hacks as always- never saw the toilet paper roll one before, and also didn't know there was such a thing as rechargeable light bulbs! Thank you so much, and also, thank you for your wonderful personality. A day with a Lone Fox video is a better day!

I use picture hanging wire. I thought that's what they were for.

I can sympathize with the older crankier thing. I don't remember wanting to bang my head against the wall when hanging pictures when I was younger. The head banging doesn't help at all with the picture alignment😉

The toilet paper rolls between the curtain pleats is genius! Also, who knew there were rechargeable light bulbs?! When we bought our 8 room house, we had only 5 outlets in the whole house! Of course we updated the electrical over the years, but we never have enough outlets!! Thanks for all your tips!❤️

Awesome tips 👌 for hiding the stuffing inside the planter (to add height to the indoor plant) fill up with packing beans or crumpled paper bags and top with pebbles, mulch or soil. Works like a charm!

You can simply string picture wire between the two hangers on a frame. Then put your nails wherever you wish. I recommend using two for maximum support. It is simple to level a picture hanging by wire, even if the nails are at different heights : )

What syncronicity! In my decluterring this morning, I found a stash of toilet paper rolls. I thought they'd get recycled, but instead I'll use them in my curtains! I also had a collection of decorative sticks (much cuter than this description makes them sound haha) in an opaque 18" vase in my bedroom. They just didn't seem right, so I tried putting a 6" plant pot inside the vase - it fit perfectly, another bit of synchronicity! With the literal elevation, the sticks now feel cohesive because their tops are at the same level as the top of my closet door.
