I actually have used a technique on all of my walls of putting a 2" tape at the top of the wall. I saw it in a decorating magazine and love the look. I am really good at cutting in but have popcorn ceilings. NO matter how good you are - it does not appear clean. By taping 2" at the top of the wall, it gives a really nice clean line. Most people come in and think we have crown molding at first glance. Might want to try it before you knock it.

It is noticable when she is giving the list of tools required... I agree with you on the "wooly pad", much cheaper when bought at the fabric store; be sure to wash and dry fabric first to avoid lint bugers... RE: video mistakes:
