The sun got lower and it was time to start heading home.

The first thing you need to do is get some kind of a container to stick your painty brush in.I use this old yogurt container.

On a side note, this lime yogurt is insanely delicious and you should try it..Fill your container up with some water.Hot or cold, it doesn’t matter.

Just stick your brush in there and leave it.You’ve been working hard with all your painting!

Leave it in there for a few hours or a few days.

Really it’ll be just fine.Suddenly it looked like I had done a whole ton of work in there, but really all I did was take about an hour of my time one evening and slop a little paint on there..

It even make the area around my super old range look a little more current..So here’s why it works:.

I used the concept of color blocking here and just painted on a solid block of color that isn’t found anywhere else in the room.That really just makes it a pop of the dark gray color rather than a continuation of something else from the room, and gives it that “backsplash” feel, since “real” backsplashes usually use a material that isn’t used anywhere else in the room..
