I’m a DIY whizz & have the best 99p hack to paint your banisters quickly

Jul 31, 2023

LET'S face it, painting can be quite the arduous task.

Not only that, but it can also be pretty pricey if you don't already have the right equipment to do the job.

But one DIY whizz has shared her genius hack for speeding up the painting while keeping costs down - and you'll never need a paintbrush again.

And perhaps the best part?

If you're a fake tan fan, you'll already have the item in your home.

In the clip shared to TikTok, Mollie, who posts under the acronym @oneeight7renovations, can be seen with a fake tan mitt over her hand.

She then dips it into a pot of black paint and glides it up and down the banister.

Mollie captioned the post: "Fake tan mit > paintbrush."

Fake tan mitts can be bought for as little as 99p.
