I bet the bathroom looks wonderful. Especially with the new shower curtain. Yeah, houses are work, work, work,

We can talk about Logan's Thursday at lunch? HUGS

I hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with lots of good eats. I just hope that you dont have a "turkey hangover" like me. I'm sick of turkey! ('Til Christmas that is!) Have a great day!!

We can talk about glazes, if you still think you need one.

Thursday for lunch sounds good.

December!?!?!?!?!?!

/* lolly runs in circles */

There are so many user-friendly water-based glazes available today to do a faux finish. These make a decorative paint treatment such as a colorwash so easy. They are also less costly and only require soap and water clean up. The clear glazes can be mixed with any latex paint of your choice. It makes the paint drying time longer which gives the painter more time to manipulate it on the wall. The drying time is not as long as oil paints, but it still changes the ordinary interior latex paint to something extraordinary. The glazes also come in premixed colors. They are also glazes available in metallic finishes of copper, gold, silver and bronze. They are more expensive in premixed colors but a little glaze goes a long way.

Guess I should have matched the curtain to the walls. Sigh. Martha Stewart, I'm not."

It may look different after it dries. And there is glaze. Glaze is easy to apply and it water proofs the walls. It can easily change the "tone" on a green. I used to do faux painting. If you love the shower curtain, I bet you can glaze the walls and make it perfect. Glaze is easy, you can apply it sloppy because it is not supposed to be perfect. And it is fairly cheap. You can mix glaze with your leftover paint to stretch it.

I am glad you and BF had such a good day. You were due a day of joy.

{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}

lunch next week? Thursday?

"mulled" wine? Hmm, I have not a clue. But enjoy plenty of it for me, and enjoy this special day. Jackie and I will be ready for the trail, Jan, 09...we hope!

Susan, thanks, I have been taking pain meds....

I have slept all day. I just took another round of meds, so I will be out soon, more than likely.

HUGS!!!! Thank you for the offer. You are such a good friend to me.

Hey Susan, yeah, I threw out my back. Hubby and kids made the trek to grandma's house.

Wow. Sounds like you are having a feast!!! Sounds yummy.

HUGS to you and tell your BF that I said hello!!
