Achieving the perfect painted home requires more than just a few cans of paint (or even a professional painter). It takes careful planning, knowledge of color theory, and attention to detail!

First off, it's important to have an idea of what colors you want for your walls. Start by looking around at other homes for inspiration. If you're stuck, consider going to a home improvement store or online retailer for some ideas. Once you've decided on the colors, pick out quality paint that will last and cover well.

Next, you'll need to prep the walls before painting. This includes sanding any rough patches and filling in holes with putty. Before painting make sure all surfaces are clean and free from dust or dirt particles which can affect how the paint adheres to the wall!

Once everything is prepped and ready to go, it's time to start rolling up your sleeves - literally! Paint drips can be avoided by using thick plastic sheets along with painter's tape on any areas around windows or moldings. And don't forget about the ceilings; use a brush specifically designed for them as this will give you better coverage. Last but not least: when putting down the roller tray always remember not to overload it with too much paint - otherwise you could end up having streaks throughout your walls!

Finally comes the fun part - painting! Make sure each layer is properly dried before adding another one on top so that they stick together perfectly without any visible lines or gaps between them. Also try not to rush - take your time so that no corners get cut and unevenness won't pass unnoticed. When all is said and done, let everything dry completely overnight before taking off all painter's tape or plastic sheets covering furniture or flooring.
(Transition) All in all, achieving that perfectly painted home isn't tough if done right – just plan ahead, use quality materials, prep properly and take your time when applying each coat! That way you guarantee yourself excellent results without any unpleasant surprises afterwards!
