I recently painted my master bedroom, but I accidentally bought a semi-gloss finish for some touch-ups instead of the eggshell finish I originally used. Now I have these random shiny spots that don't match the rest of the wall. What's the best way to fix this? Can I just apply a primer over those spots and then repaint with the eggshell, or do I need to sand them down first? Any tips? Thanks a bunch!

You can just repaint the semi-gloss spots with the eggshell paint. There's no need for primer or sanding—just go right over it. That should blend it back in pretty well!
Why not turn those shiny spots into a fun design? Think big plants like monstera leaves or even octopus shapes! Just make sure to keep them about the same size as your dinner plates to maintain a uniform look. Stripes could also be a cool idea!
I tried that and it still looked bad! Haha
