Amy I totally agree. Its just important to understand the risks and to assure your project does not cause other larger issues such as a fire. Many years ago my father was in the furniture construction business. He made wood frames out of 1x2 boards and fastened plastic to them. Then using spring clamps he would assemble them when he painted in our garage to keep the dust and bugs that always seem to show up anytime something is painted.

@Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com - On my blog post I do mention that we placed it where there is a side door (for ventilation) and that we always wear protective gear/masks so we don't breath the paint dust and fumes. You are correct that it is important.
Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
This is great, but @Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com et al.: for those of us on a budget who don't have paint sprayers that can handle latex/lower VOC paints and have to continue to buy Rustoleum etc., what about fumes? I ask because I really want to figure out how to do this in the off-season--especially for plastics, there's not a whole lot of choice.
If you don't have a paint sprayer and you're using store bought spray paints, is it safe to use this (using regular precautions, eg disposable 3m respirator mask etc, closing it up, opening windows, running fan, closing the door to the room)? Still seems risky... do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!
