This is a material that was put on the outside of my home more than 20 years ago. I came in boxes and is very light weight. It was used to decorate the house instead of using brick.

"La Paintuer" is at it again. O9:40am. He needs an electric
stirrer for the paint. I gave him a big flat stick. That is what I always got when I ask how am I going to stir the paint.

He will be back in a "half hour", then it will be spirulina time. Odd chap, Jack of all trades, fixes BMW's, Mercedes, Vintage Jaguars, I 've seen him work, and his paint work is very good likewise. However, like I said, works on his time. Now work, now Seattle Coffee time, a bit''work, now time to
watch a Japanese Shakuhatchi player and mediate.

I suppose he is what you would call a Caravanserai, no steady job, apt to take off to California on the heel of his boot. This is normal for this region of country.

I am not a good painter.

my house already has an upstairs over two of the downstairs rooms, but the rest of the house is only one story. i thought i had heard before that it is easier and smarter financially to just start over than to build on top of an existing structure?? should i even bother contacting people to come check it out?

Has anyone ever used a feather duster to paint interior walls? And I wanted to know if there are any tips you might have? Of course, I am using a brush/roller for the solid blue which is about 2 shades darker than what I am using the feather duster for. My main desire, is to produce a print effect with the feathers. I also I wondered if the right duster is needed. The ones that I have bought are cut off evenly and I am wondering if the other kind, where the feathers get smaller and smaller as the extend from the handle is needed?

We just painted some rooms in our house and the bathroom was one of them. We painted it pink and I like the color but I think it needs a little "something". I don't really like the look of sponging, so I am wondering what some other techniques are? I've heard of ragging. How is that easiest done? Are there any other ones...nothing too complex...I'm a beginner.
