My Amazing Hair Dresser !!!

Too Busy To Get my Hair Done !!!

When Reno, from Maddison Avenue Hair Salon, dropped into HD yesterday, he took one look at me and said...
 "when are you coming in to get that mop cut & styled ?"
I said...
 "Reno, you know how busy I am, when can I possibly come to Lock Street to see you ?"
He said ...
"What time will you be home?"

This Amazing Artist came to my place and cut & styled my mop at 10pm last night !!!
In my garage !!!
 

 I Love You Reno !!!

Venetian Plaster !!!

Venetian Plaster is truly one of the loveliest ways to create a subtle old word look.

 Judy was very pleased with the results. 

Venetian Plaster, by Behr,  is applied with a trowel. It is not actually plaster rather very thick paint.
One of the biggest mistakes I find when people use this product is the application, they tend to put it on too thick like it is plaster - in order to achieve the depth of texture. 
With this product (venetian plaster) the paint does it for you.
