Whose the painter?


Boo&BugsMom wrote: The post about painting in heat got me thinking. Whenever there is painting to be done, I usually do it because hubby, well...he just plain stinks at it. Well, actually I have found out if he just takes his time he CAN do a better job. So, because I like things "just so" I do most, if not all, of the painting in our home. He has done ceilings though...I hate ceilings.

moped replied: Honestly I don't know because in the past we have hired a company - LOL I think I would be the painter

Calimama replied: DH totally. He does all the fixing, building, painting, etc.

stella6979 replied: I wouldn't say I enjoy painting, but I do like things done a certain way, so I usually just do it all myself.

luvbug00 replied: Lars is SUPER ocd. things have to go and look JUST RIGHT. so i let him do all the house stuff.

A&A'smommy replied: both... whenever we paint this apartment he will help lol I will pick out the colors though tongue.gif

Cece00 replied: How about neither?? rolling_smile.gif My parents painted all the rooms in our house. I helped with one...that was enough. We dont plan on painting again for a lloooonnnngggg time. That's why we went with all neutral colors.

luvmykids replied: Me, without a question. I'm the classic case of being married to a contractor who refuses to do anything that resembles that kind of work at home laugh.gif

I don't like to paint at all but since he won't, if I want it done I have to do it myself.

Isn't that the only way to paint?

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: We pay someone to do it. LOL. Hate painting. Although, my brother and my dad came out to help with Logan's room.

lovemy2 replied: Me for sure - DH is horrible at it....I actually enjoy painting but only when I can take my time and do it right - a hard task with now two kids - probably why the three gallons of paint are still sitting on the basement stairs for my family room/kitchen dry.gif

Sam & Abby's Mom replied: Hubby does all the rolling and I do all the cutting in. We actually make a pretty good paint team. Too bad we dont parent the same ! LOL

hoosier momma replied: I do the majority of painting in my house. I actually painted my whole house when I was pregnant.

in my defense, it is not to HER standards so it isn't that I can't do it, I just can't do it well enough for her
