Comments (15)Thanks everyone. Grandbabies are the most precious things on earth! LOL, Cathy that quote is spot on! Tricia, Zoe's hair is more a light auburn color. She is the spitting image of Sarah, her mom. Annie, nope.....quit sucking my thumb a couple of months back. Cold turkey. Linda...See MoreMy little hippie chick has a question
Comments (12)My husband was born in 54 and was I think 13 at Woodstock. He had tickets and everything. I was thinking 48-49 :~) She's an "old soul" and would have been a more responsible kind of hippy. DH was the very picture of sex drugs and rock n roll. We'll try to take and post a picture of her poster today. She'll only be there for a year and a half more. She won't live there after she graduates. As it stands now she only lives there every four months and alternating w/e's. She's contemplated just staying here but wants to be politically correct. Her room here is baby blue, which is her most favorite color. She wants to do something different there. It's something her father and step mom will have to live with for a long time as he's not given to do a lot of work around the house. The addition they're finally finishing started 15 years ago when it was MY house. It not progressing at all is part of why he's not my problem anymore. :~)...See MoreNeed to repaint to sell. Little Natural light, so what color tan
Comments (16)We did well with BM Monroe Bisque in a few rooms with jack squat for natural light. If you're interested in going toward off-white, SW Navajo White is my favorite off-white. It has some peach, some yellow, some green and some brown in it, so IME it played nicely with a wide range of furnishings, window treatments, and light levels. We used it housewide in the house we rented (our landlord mandated that only one color be used and that it be some variety of off-white), which had a couple of bright rooms and more very dark ones; it looked different in varying lights so people thought we had used more than one paint color. BM's Navajo White is a bit cooler with more gray in it to my eye, and I think it has a tendency to look a little dingy in some lights (or lack thereof), although other people like it. Everything depends on your local market and if you're in a bad buyer's market that is heavily weighted to people who don't want to do a thing besides move in and unpack their stuff (which is what we had here - after all, they were spoiled for choice with high inventories, and I think too many buyers are watching shows like "Designed to Sell" and expecting that sort of "updating" in the houses they look at), that's who you're stuck with trying to attract. We were 7+ months on the market by the time we closed, despite being told over and over and OVER again how beeeyoooteeeful our house was with an olivey-goldish master, light lemon-yellow guest room, steel-blue bath and light plum living room. We had "neutralized" most of the house but kept those rooms as they were because they looked the nicest when we were still living there. Both DH and I totally suck at painting (well, I can't - by the time I get half a wall done I'm ready to fall down - and DH freely admits he sucks at it) and we just couldn't afford to pay a painter when we moved out. Talk to several RE professionals in your town, ask them what's actually selling there....See MoreNeed a couch that has color pastel print.
Comments (4)I would suggest considering a solid-colored sofa and adding pillows with pastel prints because it will give you much more flexibility to change the look over time based on your style preferences, seasons, etc. Based on your mention you do not like beige/brown/gray, and depending on the room's colors, you may be able to consider another color such as cream, light sage, etc. Another option to add interest would be to consider a subtle texture within the solid color, or you could consider a pattern that is more subtle that a pastel print, such as subtle stripes, and still have the flexibility to add pastel print pillows. Just a thought!...See More- 15 years ago
