Projects Made Simple with Walmart: Paint A Room

Monica — Thu, 24 May 2012 17:56:20 +0000

Walmart has a new program called Projects Made Simple. Projects Made Simple is Walmart’s complete solution to make Do-It-Yourself projects around your home- simple.

Walmart’s Projects Made Simple program is full of how-to videos for simple DIY home improvement projects like painting an accent wall, installing a towel and repairing a running toilet. Accompanying each video is a product list with recommended Walmart products and quick links to buy for Walmart.com items. There are also downloadable project guides.

We were given the chance to see just how simple one of these tasks really were… We decided to go with Painting a room.

Check out our video and see how it went!
