And if a couple can paint a room together, that's golden. (My wife reads to me while I paint. We've read quite a few Sue Grafton novels while I painted.) We did two rooms with a southwestern theme last summer. House make-overs are a lot of work, but are such a huge pay-back in enjoyment.<BR/><BR/>DonDonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17070578562535678950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5009840995328987506.post-39917357497389935112009-03-11T06:56:00.000-07:002009-03-11T06:56:00.000-07:00love the mnake-over pictures!

Hey, most times when couples wallpaper or paint together, it leads to grounds for divorce, but you two are actually smiling while wearing painters' clothes.
