certified dewey color consultant: DIGITAL CAMERA and…..VINEGAR??????? - 03/13/08 03:18 PM
One of my favorite tools for helping home owners to "see" what a buyer experiences when their property is being viewed is the screen on my digital camera. It never lies. Somehow that camera is able to pick up not only what the room looks like and what's in it, but

I've posted another view of this morning room here. I've been very pleased with the results of this project, but in seeing some of the other "pro's" work, I keep going back and rethinking...should I have done more? For example, how about art work or a mirror over that fireplace? And because of

certified dewey color consultant: Raffia as a Teaching Tool - 10/28/07 01:19 AM
Alright, so I was only joking when I commented on Jackson's blog about using raffia in the future. Truly, it had never occurred to me before to stage any of my props with the stuff. It just seemed so unkempt to me - what with stringy ends and all. Recently, and only
