First time using paint sprayer 10/10

TOOLS OF THE WEEK

Paint Sprayer! I used this paint sprayer of the first time last week, and again today. I WILL NEVER GO BACK! I have seriously had this thing for over a month — too intimidated by words like “overspray“ to use it. I taped and sprayed and it was SO MUCH FASTER and SO MUCH BETTER than rolling. And the clean up takes the same amount of time. I’m not kidding you. Buy. A. Paint. Sprayer. I bought the home right finish max and it has done amazing for the door and the board and batten wall that I painted.

Kreg Circular Saw Guide This saw turns your circular saw into portable table saw… the table saw *sigh* looks easy but it’s something else that has intimidated me. I don’t even know that I’ll need to use one anytime soon with this circular saw guide for cutting my big shelves and boards to smaller lengths.

FOR THE CHILDREN

We love this book series “What Should Danny Do?“ from Elon Books. They are seriously my kids favorite books. Maelie sleeps with on in her crib every night. As you are reading Danny comes to different choices throughout the day and your kids will decide what Danny chooses. Then based on their choice you turn to a page to see the consequence (good or bad) of his choice. It’s such a powerful way to proactively teach this lesson that life is full of choices and we decide what happens each day!
