Paint

Color, Color, Color. People have such varied opinions on this subject. It is staggering. The paint is the first thing that people notice when they enter the room. As much as you do not like to admit it, colors set moods. When we purchased our new home the person before us had brought in professionals for help with color and painting. My wife's first statement, No!, No!, No! That color has got to go! If you are planning to sell or just be in a home for a few years, save yourself the trouble and possibility of negative connotations. Stay Neutral!

I will harp about this in so many different areas, just bare with me. The details are what makes a good job, a great job. Taking a little extra time to mask or put that third coat (if necessary) will add such a difference in how it looks and how proud you are of the job you did. I will admit it to you. The first thing that I look at in someone's home are the painting transitions or edges. If they are messy or paint is everywhere, it makes me think that if someone thought that little about the areas that people see, what do they do in the areas that people do not. And yes, when I get sloppy it is the only thing on the project I see when I stand back and look at it.
