**Small Holes and Dents**: For those little holes or dents, just grab some spackle or joint compound. Use a putty knife to fill in the hole, making sure to smooth it out so it’s flush with the wall. Once it’s dry, sand it down a bit and paint over it. Easy peasy!

**Medium to Large Holes**: If you’re dealing with a bigger hole, you’ll need to use a piece of drywall. Cut a patch that’s slightly larger than the hole, trace the outline on the wall, and cut out the damaged area. Screw the patch in place, tape the seams with drywall tape, and then cover it with joint compound. Sand it down after it dries and paint it to match the rest of the wall.
