WEEKLY NEWSCAST

DESIGN TIP OF THE WEEK:

When you are choosing white and offwhite paint colors, in my experience they dry lighter than the chips.  If I  hold the chip so you can look across the color and not directly into the face of the chip,  I can tell how white it will be.

WEEKLY NEWSCAST

DESIGN TIP OF THE WEEK:

If you are wanting to change some rooms and don't feel inspired,  I  find it very helpful to visit Consignment Stores, taking a mental inventory of what is available.  Then do an inventory at home and see if there is something you would like to replace.  Or visit the fabric stores to see all the new colors and designs to get inspired.  Sometimes the creative process can go "outside to inside".
