Lady shares result after painting her apartment herself
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian lady had painted her apartment herself.
Seeing that she does not have money to paint the house and pay for workmanship, the lady who described herself as an "independent woman" bought glitters and mixed them in two small buckets of paint she got for N2,000 each.
During the video, she revealed that she got so frustrated at a point because paint smeared her hair and every part of the apartment.
She had a female friend come over to assist her with the painting. She painted her room with a different colour from the white she used in the parlour.
