Painting is one of the least expensive and easiest means of redecorating. Anyone can use a roller or a paintbrush, and the finished project feels like a completely new room. If you are in the business of painting your little girl’s bedroom, here are a few tips to make the job easier, to make it last longer, and to make it as feminine and as pretty as possible.
Before painting any room, always prepare the walls and trim first. Clean everything, wiping it down with a damp cloth and allowing it to dry completely. Then carefully put painting tape along any borders: ceiling, floor, trim, windows, outlets, etc. Drop cloths or newspaper should be spread out along the floor from the edge of the walls – preferably covering the entire room, or at least several feet out from each wall. The prepping is the least enjoyable part of a painting project, but it is essential for a clean finish.
The first step is to paint the trim. Girls’ rooms ought to be feminine and light. Even if your daughter is a bit older and thinks she wants a navy blue room, paint the trim and doors white or ivory; this will give it the feminine touch, in spite of her dark-colored preferences. If the trim in her room is dark brown, don’t despair. Gone are the days of sanding and sawdust messes. Instead, go to any paint store or paint section in a department store, and buy a can of white bonding primer. The bonding primer will attach itself even to shiny, lacquered trim and create a whole new surface. The only preparation necessary is to make sure the trim is clean and taped along the floor or ceiling. It won’t be necessary to tape between the trim and the walls because the walls will be painted later. Simply brush the primer on just like paint. If the trim is very dark, two coats of primer may be necessary. The primer will be dry in about four hours.
When you paint the trim, always use glossy paint and don’t forget the door, closet doors, and any other fixtures in the room। Apply two coats or three if the trim was originally very dark. After the painted trim has dried, wait several days before painting the walls. The trim needs to be set enough to put tape on it without the risk of pulling off the fresh paint.
Simple Solution For A Feng Shui Bedroom
Your bedroom is your ultimate inner sanctum where you are at your most vulnerable while you sleep and recharge your chi. From a yin/yang perspective, this is a more yin, quiet and peaceful environment; you need to feel protected and do not want distracting and powerful chi to disturb you. At the same time, there needs to be a good circulation of chi and plenty of fresh air available to recharge you.
Here are 16 Feng Shui bedroom tips. Make this all-important room a sanctuary:
* Ideally, the bedroom should be as far away as possible from the front door, mirroring the practice of our prehistoric ancestors who did not sleep in the mouth of their cave.
* On entering your bedroom, note where the windows are located. Chi tends to travel between the door and any windows, so avoid positioning your bed in line with this ‘draught’ of chi.
* Position your bed so that you can see the door from where you sleep. This gives you a deep sense of inner security.
* If it is feasible, position your bed as far away from the door as possible.
* Avoid sleeping with your head close to a window as your chi will dissipate through the window and make you feel more tired on awakening.
* If you have a bathroom, toilet or shower leading off your bedroom, make sure that the toilet door is always shut while you are asleep.
* To help you protect your own chi while you are asleep, to internalize it and recharge it, make sure you have a strong, stable headboard. Chi energy enters and exits the body through the feet, hands and the top of the skull, Having a solid ‘mountain’ behind you while you sleep is far more beneficial than a cold, blank wall or worse, the cutting chi of an ornate brass bedstead.
* If you sleep with another person, note the position of your bed relative to the wall that it is up against। Is it equidistant--in the middle of the wall? This is vital in a relationship as it gives both individuals who share the bed equality in the relationship. A shared bed crammed into the corner of a room, is giving more freedom of chi to the individual on the open side whereas the partner will literally and symbolically feel up against a wall.
