I invented the easiest way to paint your walls without lugging heavy pots around and all you need is an old milk bottle | The Sun

LET'S face it, painting can be a tricky and totally arduous task.

But one savvy woman has come up with a genius trick so you can hold the paint and paintbrush in one hand while you're up a ladder trying to get to those hard-to-reach places.


Fi took to TikTok (@fiandherhouse) and shared her milk bottle painting hack.

The savvy woman begins by grabbing an empty, washed out plastic milk bottle container and some scissors.

She then cuts directly half way across the width of the bottle, before then moving the scissors upwards and cutting towards the lid.

Fi then removes a quarter of the milk bottom, leaving a carton that's ideal for holding the paint, while the brush can fit perfectly into the nozzle of the bottle.

In a clip posted to TikTok (@homeasperations), the DIY fan can be seen pulling on a latex glove, before then putting a glove (or sock) over the top and dipping it into a tray of white paint.

She then moves her hands up and down the banister, resulting in the paint gliding on the wood.

"Have you seen this painting hack?" she asks.
