Color My World!

A new coatPaint your Evergreen Colroado home of paint can make a room cozy and welcoming without breaking the bank.

Take time when choosing your paint colors.  Decicde what colors will match your existing furniture and observe how the paint color looks at different parts of the day.  Choose several swatches at the store and compare in your home.  Don’t choose a color because it is “different” and catches your eye at the store.  Can you live with “different” for an extended period of time?

Preparation is imperative!  Cover floors and furniture, strip away old peeling paint, clean the walls and patch holes and cracks.  You will be more satisfied with the painting results.

Spruce up Your Home - Tip #1

by Cindy, on June 19th, 2008

Make Each Room Your Own!

Give each room your own personal touch.  Make it your own by placing  a antique-clock1.jpgpersonal item  that has meaning and reflects you.  Add a photo, plant,  something whimsy, something that just doesn’t quite fit, a little unusual that will personalize the room.  This will add comfort and perhaps be a conversation starter.
