Decorating Advice and Paint Colors

I recently watched "Catch & Release".  Like most movies of that genre, the best thing about it was the house they all lived in.  Here are some decorating lessons that I learned from the movie:

If your house has an old library, you can easily turn it into a bedroom for a cool effect.

Having cool roommates make a huge difference in how you feel about your personal space.

If you want your house to have a craftsman look, you can just make a faux coved ceiling by letting the ceiling color come down a few inches onto your wall color.  This wasn’t in the movie, but I thought about how to make a craftsman style while sitting through a long movie which shall remain nameless.

Every house should have a hammock.

If you have a beautiful view, show it off, let the focus be on the outdoors.  There’s nothing wrong with having a beautiful outdoor dining table.  In fact, there’s something insanely right about it.

So I guess this movie had some value after all.

to….well me.  Yes, I’m trying to bring back the phrase shout out, I really wish it had never left.  Anyways, the big news is that after years, I finally have all of my watercolors/brushes/papers, in one place.  That place is one of those big wooden boxes like all of the artists carry.  I’m sure my art will now improve exponentially. I’m a real artist!

I want to have a garden. I KNOW I should have a garden, in case of emergencies & in order to save money. However, it seems like I am always stopped by the deer, rabbits, & squirrels that frequent our yard, besides the fact that Utah has very extreme weather. I’m kicking myself now that I’ve found out how affordable Greenhouses are if you are shopping at the Online Discount Mart. I had never priced greenhouses before because I thought they were just too expensive. Shhh…don’t tell anyone that I was wrong.
