There are various things that need to be kept in mind before one starts decorative painting. The most important and foremost thing that needs to be kept in mind is the selection of colours. The colour that is chosen should be such which goes with the existing décor of the room and the furniture also. Before one starts painting, it should always be ensured that the surface on which the painting has to be done is prepared properly for the painting.

To get the best results for the painting, the base coating should be correct. The coat should be applied on the base without using brush and roller marks and it one needs to be careful that it is applied evenly. It is always advisable to do the painting in steps and start with smaller portions of the area that one wishes to paint. To test on a small part is much better than starting to work on the entire base.
