Hints About Colors When You Redecorate

"Use colors thoughtfully when you redecorate any room in the house. Color selection of paints and wall coverings is mostly a matter of personal preference."


1970's

What were you thinking?

Everyone knows a home from the 70's includes brown wood paneling, avocado greens, and burnt orange.

A lot of the iconic designs of the 1970's were a bit of an overflow from the 1960's. People began to tone down their colors for more neutral pallets.

Maybe our couple here in this picture has decided to get rid of their beaded curtains and geometric wallpaper. 

If you want to change up your wall color, it is recommended that you test the paint before making a final decision. The color you see in the store could look different in your room and with your own lighting. 


Sometimes you might even think a color would look great in your room but then change your mind when you see that color spread across a larger area other than a sample card.

"Is There a Doctor in the House?" "Medical emergencies may occur at ay time, especially with young children. Prepare ahead of time by knowing exactly what you will do if it becomes necessary to get medical assistance quickly." Let's just sum up this blog post. AMERICAN HEALTHCARE SUCKS I hate doctors and their offices and their bills. This broken system we have is why "natural" remedies are becoming popular. We choose something other than a professional to treat us because our insurance won't cover services or the doctor might just misdiagnose us and throw meds at us. I'm sure this isn't everyone's experience. It has been mine for years. I had a good doctor once. If you want good medical services it will cost you. Remember when you could just go to a doctor?
