It's also good to wrap your roller in tape to remove extra fuzzies. I use my old blue tape for this job since FrogTape came out.
I normally do not tape but when I have to I love FrogTape. A good angled brush is normally all I need to get a nice straight line when edging.
I don't invest in drop cloths. I just use a few old towels and move them around as needed.
On paint, you get what you pay for. I used to hate Behr but now I love the new all in one paint they developed. Also like Benjamin Moore and Valspar.

I do it all the time. I get well framed pieces for nothing at Good Will or yard sales and repaint over them.

I purchased the Squares to Spare lamp for my first borns room 4 years ago from Crate and Barrel (the Land of Nod sister company). It was half the price then. I'm feeling a little ahead of the curve for once thankyouverymuch :)

I did this same color combo in my pre-schoolers room. The paint looks the same too...I think it was a Sherwin Williams color. Nice job!

Mine also stopped working after three years. It was wonderful while it worked and the upkeep was relatively simple.
