Our homes are a sanctuary; they make us feel safe and comfortable. We feel a sense of pride when our homes look beautiful and striking, and we do everything we can to maintain that exterior look.
That said, just like the exterior, the interior of your home also needs some TLC to keep it looking good at all times. A beautiful interior can enhance the aesthetic appeal of your home and have a relaxing effect on your mind.
A good paint job every now and then can go a long way in helping you keep your interior looking beautiful and fresh.
While interior painting can be a little tricky, with the right guidance, you can get that perfect look you’re looking for.
Tips for a gorgeous interior paint job
Choose the right color
Picking the right color for your home is the first step when you’re painting your interior.
Your color choice will depend on the look you’re going for, and you may want to pick a color that complements your furniture.
Think about the different shades and choose a shade that fits in with your existing color palette.
You can even use online tools that allow you to upload a picture of your interior and see how different colors look on it.
Get the right tools
Here are some of the most essential tools you need for a quality and mess-free paint job:
A step ladder
Paintbrushes
Canvas or cloth
Sandpaper
Painter’s tape
Putty knife
Prep the interior
With your tools in place, it’s time to prep your interior for the paint job:
- Move anything you don’t want to get paint on out of the room and cover all your furniture and floor with cloth or canvas.
- Mast the edges and moldings with painter’s tape. Use the putty knife to seal the tape properly.
- Remove light switches and power outlets and cover the cavities with masking tape.
Your interior is now ready for painting!
Painting technique
Before starting painting, decide how you want to approach the paint job.
We recommend starting from the ceiling and working your way down for a clean and easy paint job. That said, pick a painting technique that suits you, and also be mindful of your brush strokes.
Once you finish painting, make sure to remove the painter’s tape before the paint dries.

FAQs
How often should I paint my interiors?
We recommend painting your interior at least every three to five years to maintain a fresh look.
Can I use exterior paint for my interiors?
You can, but we don’t recommend it.
Exterior paints have a lot of chemicals that help protect them against the elements and can release VOCs into the air, which can cause several health issues.
Do ceilings need two coats of paint?
Generally, no.
Instead of two coats of paint, apply one coat of primer and one coat of paint.
What should I paint first, the walls or the ceiling?
Painting the ceiling after the walls could lead to paint splatters on your walls, so it’s better to start with the ceiling.
