Anything But Ordinary would like to present it’s entry level DIY for Females class. Are you a single female? Divorced? Widowed? New to home ownership? Or just a lady who doesn’t mind getting a little dirty to tackle her own honey-do list? Let’s face it, hiring a professional can get expensive and not everyone has it in their budget to pay to have someone else come and paint the inside and outside of their homes. This course would be a perfect place to start. We will dive into the ins and outs of your basic, and not so basic, drywall repairs and painting. I will demonstrate how to make repairs to various sized holes and cracks that are in your walls and guide you through a step-by-step process of properly prepping and painting your home from start to finish to get you that professional look. We will discuss various types of paints and what they are used for and also discuss how to pick the best color for your spaces. A $25 supply fee is included in your total class fee.
