I need instructions on different ways to texture paint, before I decide which to do. For example: sand, tissue, etc. Any suggestions?

I'd recommend you determine which effect you want first....and then get the instructions for it. There are so many different ways to paint!

An idea: go to a local used book store or even your Borders book store and check out the decorating section. That's where I got my collection of painting books. One of my favorite books was a "bargain" book!

Call Home Depot and Lowes and ask someone in the paint department. These home improvement stores have classes for beginners.
