With my garage organized, I’ve not only been able to dig into my own home projects, I also have the room to spread out and get jobs done for my clients. In the comfort of my own home…and on my own timeline. Which means I’m also not hanging around in their garage making a big ole mess. 😉

And no job is messier than organizing paint. Sometimes I bring home gallons upon gallons. These jobs take time and I do it when my own kids aren’t around to help make matters messier. If you haven’t seen my organized paint project, you can find out all the details here…

And the can labels are even over there in that blog post for free printing!…

But the truth about paint – whether in its original can or smaller can that I’ve condensed – is that it doesn’t last forever. So it’s probably best to have a simple inventory sheet with your paints detailed in case you need to buy some for a touch-up or an entire room re-fresh.

When I was condensing my client’s paint, sadly there were many cans not salvageable because the paint had already turned. No worries – before sending off to hazardous waste, I added the names to the inventory sheet. This way she still knows the paint name, brand and finish used in the laundry room. Which means she can run to her local paint store anytime to grab a fresh can of paint…

I’m not a super creative gal and like things simple anyway, so as you can tell my printable reflects that. 🙂

And I’m also helpful and generous…so you can grab your own Paint Inventory printable here for free…
