How to Paint an Ombre Wall

Original Air Date: 09/19/26 Episode Number: 477

Episode Summary

This week on Home In Progress, Dan covers paint store tools you've probably walked past without a second look, and explains why each one is worth having. They include FrogTape (green and yellow), the painter's five-in-one tool, a brush comb, the Handy Paint Pail, the Wooster Pelican Pail and the Wooster Sherlock system. Then he gets into ombre walls, a painted gradient where one color slowly melts into the next with no hard line between them. He explains what the look is, where it works and which direction the colors can run, then walks through the full process from choosing colors to blending wet paint. The episode wraps up with a fall list: jobs to get on the calendar now, plus a few fun things to do before the season gets away from us.
