A new coat 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.

The more extra effort and thought put into your painting decision the happier you will be in the long run.

Dakota Blonde will be performing at the Evergreen Lakehouse July 2nd.  You won’t want to miss this vibrant trio who uniquely combines folk, bluegrass and country music to present an enchanting concert.

With their tight harmonies, they fit together perfectly, like pieces of a puzzle, making you think they were born to sing together.  This acoustic trio boasts Mary Huckins form South Dakota, Don Pennella with his charming acoustic bass, and the marvelous humor of Tony Raddell.

 Pull up your blanket, sit back, relax and enjoy!
