Paint tips brushed off



As Ol' Blue Eyes ironically crooned "Fly Me to the Moon" in the background, Jennifer and Joe carefully updated Joe's 1970's living room this afternoon. The creative couple muted the old bright creamy fireplace with "Sly Fox" burnt sienna and applied "Chocolate Sparkle" to pull browns from the new bamboo floors. "Vanilla Custard" on most of the walls kept the room bright and airy while some "Oakwood Brown" balanced the big windows.
Rent or sell?
Jennifer and Joe are moving to Nisswa soon, so putting Joe's Hopkins townhome in top shape is a priority. That, and taking a quick trip to California. Stan and Kathleen dropped in to give strokes after the heartbreaking Vikings loss today and, dipping into their bucket of knowledge, couldn't resist spreading on the advice, before making tracks and avoiding actual work.
Jenny and Joe just rolled on.
