How can I paint my walls myself?

You will need basic painting supplies, such as a roller, a brush, a drop cloth, sandpaper, a putty knife, a ladder, and paint trays. Start by cleaning the wall surface and sanding if needed. Patch any holes with spackling and allow it to dry. Cover the floor and furniture with a drop cloth. Tint your paint with a colorant if desired. Pour the paint into a paint tray and roll the roller over the fresh paint. Begin by painting in the corners and around the edges of the wall. Use the brush to spread the paint evenly onto the wall. Let the paint dry, and then apply a second coat if desired. Finally, remove the drop cloth and replace furniture, and you are finished.
