Because it is primed it will not soak up as much paint as not primed. But you will still need to list the size of the room to figure out how many gallons of paint.

Prices can be very subjective depending on where you buy the items.

________ gallons of paint
Paint brush or two (large & small) Anywhere from $2 -$8 each depending on quality
Drip pan $1 - $5 depending on plastic or metal
Tape $1 - $5 depending on number of rolls and type
paint thinner (clean up, if using latex) $2-$5 (size of bottle)


Do you love the wall paper, Did the neighbor do a good job putting it up in their own house? Because if you are considering just wallpapering to avoid the painting, you may find yourself buying wallpaper stripper and stripping the paper off. Depending on the cost of the wallpaper it can sometimes be cheaper than painting.
