Quick Hello

Hello all who tune in! Where have I been darn it? Bet you thought I was back to my old ways and not posting. Nope just real busy there for a minute. I spent the last two weeks getting ready for another photo shoot among and few other things - like painting. Which is something I wanted to up date everyone who's interested in a greener paint. So we used to paint that I talked about here though out my Mom's whole house and I gotta tell ya, I really like it. First I should say my Grandmom (who also lives there) has an extremely sensitive nose that would shame a dog. So sensitive that it make her sick at times. This was the main reason for looking for alternative paint - at least low VOC. Well my friends not a problem here, at first I was a little nervous because it does have more of a smell than Bio Shield paints. But, there were no complaints the whole time no headaches, no nausea nothing not even when at the end when the whole house was painted. So this is the first great review the next would be how well the paint covered making it a very high quality - this is good 'cause who really wants to pay more just because it's green, right? And then of course the colors - beautiful, earth, rich and creamy.

So I guess then that I recommend it my friends.

No worries I will be showing off that photo shoot. It went well considering we got kick out of the place I really wanted to do it. Permits! Who hear of permits, my goodness! So we may or may not do it again, at the end of course we thought of the perfectest place ever.

So stay tuned there's more to come. Promise.

I must share this with whoever's listening


So I was in Home Depot this weekend shopping for paint with my Mom. I've offered to help her paint a couple of rooms in her house. Now, personally I like to use this paint - Bio Shield but you have to order it which means paying for shipping on top of the already high price. Bio Shield paint though in almost biodegradable, no VOC base and no VOC pigments and it comes in recyclable plastic buckets. So they're really thinking about it. Anyway, so this is bit much to ask of someone else, especially when they're wanting at least five gallons of paint - that's a lot of shipping. So back to Home Depot, here I am wandering the paint aisles and I turn around and there it is Freshair paint, pretty much doing the same thing as Bio Shield, minus the shipping prices. Boy was I excited. They have lots of colors to choose from, primer and a white base ceiling paint. I just had to share, just may be you are feeling frustrated 'cause you want to paint but you have no friendly choices. Well, I never thought I'd say it but, Go Home Depot!!
