The Cardboard Hack You’ll Want To Try When Painting Several Rooms
By SASKIA AINSWORTH
While you may just opt for your usual drop sheets when preparing to paint several rooms, upgrading your painting sheets with some cardboard could make the task much smoother.
By attaching cardboard squares to the corners of the sheets, you’ll have much more maneuverability, allowing you to easily fold the drop sheet and move around with ease.
The cardboard also helps to fit the drop sheet snugly into corners. If your painting sheet is light, cardboard corners add weight, helping prevent it from blowing around.
Take a square piece of cardboard and attach it to one corner of your painting sheet, ensuring it's nice and secure before moving on to the opposite one.
Repeat this process for each sheet corner until all four corners have some cardboard. If you only have thin pieces of cardboard, layer them so they'll be solid.
