She says: “Do your walls have rounded corners? Mine do and they can be frustrating!”

In the video, she continues: “This is supposed to work for most 90 degree rounded corners 

“Cut the angle at 23 degrees (I did 22.5 degrees) & the outside width 1 inch, then you cut the side pieces at the same angle.” 

And in another video, she demonstrates building a door and how to take it up a notch. 

Angie says in the video to “flute it.”

Angie wrote in a caption: “(I) wanted a gold faucet in my shower to match my sink, so I SPRAY PAINTED it.”.

A fourth hack, which helps decorators clean up quickly, is to purchase some Press ‘n’ Seal - which creates an actual seal against a variety of surfaces, including plastic, paper, wood, metal, foam and glass.

Then stick it to the tray, before pouring the paint on it. 

Then use your roller, and once you have finished simply lift off the press n seal and then the washing up is minimal.
