So I've recently become obsessed with daydreaming about painting the walls of my room and re-doing all of the furniture. Somewhere between the daydreams, I'll only have enough money to do the first part. And "enough money" roughly equals $75.

I've never painted a wall before. The most of I"ve ever done was a couple of strokes with the roll-y thingy on some wood, and my friend took it away from me in 2.6 seconds because I was "doing it all wrong!" (I didn't know how badly you could go wrong...I mean, don't you just roll it back and forth? )

Getting back to the point, can anyone who has painted a room before tell me what to expect when go into Home Depot? What supplies am I going to have to buy? How long does it take for the paint to dry? And really important, will the $75 be enough to cover it? The room's not toooo big, just a regular ol' bedroom.

Aside from the technical paint stuff, does anyone have any color suggestions?

It won't take days. But make it easy for yourself. Don't move all the furniture out, move it to the centre of the room if you can. little things.

You also need to take into account that it may take more than on coat of paint before you're finished.
