4 Great Uses for Leftover Paint

1. Use It!

Keep the painting fun going and get creative by using your left over paint around your home. Even the slightest pop of color to a room or an old piece of furniture can brighten up your home.  Another fun idea is creating chalkboard paint! You can use chalkboards for a kids’ room (a better alternative than coloring on your freshly painted walls) or for a fun activity at parties. Click here to learn more about this fun DIY project.

2. Store It!

When your project is completed and you would like to store away your paint for another time, first make sure you pick a safe location that is out of reach of small children and pets.  Another helpful tip is to cover the opening of the paint with plastic wrap then securely seal the lid. Turn the can upside down and store it in a room with moderate temperature to preserve the quality of the paint. Follow these steps and your paint will be ready when you are!
