When you have young children, your home is bound to get a little messy. From toys in the hallways to blankets strewn across the floor, it’s difficult maintaining a clean home. But when company is coming over, these items can be easily put away and out of sight.
Unfortunately, the same can’t be done with dirty walls. At AVESTA PAINTING, we’ve put together 3 ways to handle messy hands on your home’s wall.
Carefree play– The most obvious option for child-proofing your wall is to provide them with washable kid’s paints. These non-toxic paints are commonly viscous and come just as easily off as they do on. Another added bonus of using washable paint is that it is often easy to remove from clothing and skin as well.
Decorate for the kids- Decorating your child’s playroom with textures and sponges can help hide smudges and fingerprints left on walls. And if you choose to sponge a variety of shades onto the walls, any permanent stain or mark can be easily masked with another application of the sponge. Easy and fun to decorate with your children!
The perfect finish- Sometimes you don’t have to sacrifice style for functionality. Try different paint finishes which work best for you. Semi-gloss wall finishes and shinier stain sheen works best for being dirt-resistant and easier to clean. But if you prefer that matte look for your walls, there are plenty of modern “scrubbable” versions of flat and eggshell finishes.
