Home Improvements

In the course of holiday-related playtime and visitation, somehow the children broke the ceramic toilet paper dispenser. (Wear gloves if you have to remove yours: the ceramic is sharp and cuts worse than paper.) So now we’re showing the house with a 12″ x 6″ hole in the wall. And Deena got the urge to paint the last of the panelling in the family room; now, instead of the room being walnut and white, it’s hollyhock and white.

Here’s a free tip for click-and-mortar merchants like K-SearsMart: show us the color swatches on-line, even if we do have to pick up the paint from the store.
