Painting the ceiling can get messy fast. One wrong move and paint starts dripping onto the floor, your hands, or even your face.
Take a piece of cardboard and cut a small hole in the middle. Slide the paint roller or brush handle through the hole, then push the cardboard up near the roller or brush head. As you paint above you, the cardboard acts like a shield and catches the paint drips before they fall.
This works because ceiling paint naturally drips downward. Instead of letting the paint fall straight onto you or the floor, the cardboard blocks and collects the drops.
