Preparing Your Area

Prepare Your Area
  1. Clear a Space
  2. Find a wide area in your home where you can fit the dresser with enough space to walk around it. This could be a storage room, a dining room, a garage, or even outside. If you do not have such a space in your home, you may need to borrow space from elsewhere. Once you have found a spot, clear the area so you can fit all the material for your project.
  3. Lay Down a Drop Cloth
  4. To avoid getting paint on your floor, lay down a drop cloth to paint your dresser on. Make sure it is much larger than the surface area of the top of the dresser.
  5. Designate Areas for Materials
  6. Take count of all your supplies and decide where they will go to maximize efficiency.
