I assume this is some kind of joke, but I've never really painted anything and I thought I might as well ask. :smile:

    You know what I just realized? All the furniture in my room, such as shelves, my bed, my desk, etc. is all black. So, where is ikea getting their black paint!?! They must be looting the titanic lol.
