Now that summer is just around the corner, many people will be thinking about redecorating thanks to the drier weather.
When it comes to DIY tasks such as painting, it can be hard to know where to start if you're not a professional.

And as it turns out, some people are baffled at the existence of the product as a whole.
Taking to Facebook's Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, one shopper shared with the groups near two million members what she had come across.
Writing in her post she said: "Not necessarily a bargain but I needed a paint stirrer so popped into Wilko. They had this one for £1 and it has a list printed on one side of other things you may need to pick up when painting.
"These can be found by the paint sample tubs."
In response to the comments many people were loving the "genius" list whilst others were shocked you could buy such a product with many people telling themselves they would stop grabbing a wooden spoon from now on or stirring paint with an old paint brush
One said: "Wait, you can buy paint stirrers?? You mean you don't have to use an old brush/broom handle, dodgy kitchen utensil or tool... or one of them random old chopsticks you have at the back of the kitchen drawer??? I am shooketh."
Another added: "Brilliant idea! I keep using my cheep art paint brushes (the likes of the works) to stir my paint, then I forget to wash them lol. This is perfection!"
"Hold on, paint stirrers are a thing? So you're telling me you don't have to sacrifice a wooden spoon every time??" wrote a third.
