Quick Fix Foe Those Pesky Holes in Walls

How many times have you moved pictures, mirrors, etc and have little holes to repair? How many times have you had larger holes to repair? Well heres a little tip to help you when you try a little painting yourself. 
Buy some DRY mix spackle or joint compound for filling holes on walls etc and mix it with the same paint you are using to coat your room with. Now fill the hole with that mix and it will dry the right color, sheen etc and ready primed or you can even leave it like that or finish with a little touch up. Thats a small short cut from yours truly, a pro wallpaperer and painter!
