Creative Painting Techniques for the Home
A new booklet entitled “Architapetural” provides an inspirational series of painting projects developed by the tape experts at 3M

London, ON - As the cooler weather approaches, we begin to think about ways to spruce up our homes. But who has a lot of spare time to invest in home projects? A new booklet developed by Scotch® Blue Painter’s Tape from 3M provides the inspiration with four delightful do-it-yourself projects, ranging from easy to advanced.

The booklet provides step-by step instructions for dressing up a piece of furniture, bringing drama to a wall or transforming a room. Whether you’re a beginner, or an expert painter, knowing the materials required for the job in advance and using the right tools the first time, always makes things much easier. All the materials needed for each project are conveniently listed on the back page of the booklet.

The projects are:

  • A Tic Tac Toy box to spruce up a kid’s room - Easy
  • A faux headboard and pin-up board (the chosen project is for a child’s room) - Intermediate
  • Frame it Up (A creative way to paint around art work) - Intermediate
  • Wainscotting (Great anywhere, but we chose a dining room) - Difficult

For best results, use Scotch Blue Painter’s Tape to ensure the project goes smoothly. It removes cleanly, even after several days on the wall, leaving a sharp line precisely where you want it. There is no surface damage, and no need for touch ups.

You’ll find the booklet, a listing of where the product is sold, and additional information on the website at http://cms.3m.com/cms/CA/en/0-243/kFrllFA/view.jhtml
