Genius Painting Hacks You’ll Wish You Thought Of Sooner

Cardboard Criss-Cross

I love this textured wall! All you need to achieve this awesome look is a piece of cardboard with straight lines. Most cardboard has a middle layer that looks like an accordion. If you can remove one layer of the cardboard to reveal that middle layer, then you’re good to go! Simply wrap that around your roller and start painting. First, you’ll roll up and down, and then you’ll roll side to side for the cross hatch look. You can also try going diagonally like in the photo above.
