Painting Question...

This one's for all you painters and decorators out there... I have painted the ceiling white and the walls are coloured. Now - I have used a roller but obviously I can't use one to get a neat finish where the wall meets the ceiling. How do I do this and get a professional finish without paying a painter? Is it just a case of using a thin brush and and a steady hand? Is this where I need a 'cutting in' brush?? What are the cheats to use?

Most painters use a 3" brush to "cut in". Load the brush with enough paint to allow it to flow nicely for a couple of feet and gently cover the area. Do You Do not over load the brush with paint, nor put too little on it. Yes you will need a (fairly) steady hand. A bit of practice and you'll fly along.
