Lacy Round Doily

Random Quick Tip!

Safe Large Paint Brushes
If a painting job is not finished and you want to keep the brushes from drying, out store the wet cleaned brushes, in a bucket of water which is tightly covered if working with latex or acrylic paint. Do not do this when painting with oil based paints.
