Make sure the colors are appropriate for your environment. Dark or bold colors fade much more quickly and require more toxic stuff to create. They aren't appropriate for a hot climate, and we are stuck with ours, since there are a few people who think it would ruin the architectural integrity of our community to change, and would block it. We had to repaint only 5 years into living here, and it should have been ten. We will continue to have to paint more frequently, (although the first paint job was the worst) and it is reflected in our dues. -- Liz Stevenson Southside Park Cohousing Sacramento, California tamgoddess [at] comcast.net Sponsor me shaving my head for childhood cancer: http://www.stbaldricks.org Click on "Sponsor a Shavee" and enter my name as written above.
