Fresh Look's Feature Paint Colour for February

  Hi Everyone Thanks for checking out my blog!  As I mentioned in my previous blog  my husband I are very fortunate to be able to escape winter in Calgary for a few weeks this year.  We are currently sitting in sunny Nevada as I write this blog 😎.  We've had the opportunity to see some beautiful sights but one of my favourite so far has been Snow Canyon (thankfully it doesn't live up to it's name 😉). I just fell in love with all the vibrant colours in the landscape, it's so different from what we are used to seeing. Another area we have visited on our winter journey was Death Valley.  One of my favourite areas was Artist Drive.  I think you can probably guess why it was one of the highlights for me.   The next few blogs I wanted to share with you some of my favourite neutral paint colours.

Hi Everyone! Welcome to 2020!  Can you believe we are here already?  I hope you had a great Christmas and a good holiday season.  I'm so excited as we will be leaving soon to head south and get away from winter for a few weeks. 😀 The great news is now that I've taken my business online I can now offer online colour consultations even when we are away!  If you are interested check out my website . As I've mentioned in my previous blogs  there are so many paint colours that I have loved working with over the years, so I've decided to start sharing those colours with you.  Every month I will share a different paint colour and how that colour can be used in your home.  I will also provide colour options that work well with my feature paint colour.  As I generally work with a Sherwin Williams colour palette those are the colours I will be sharing with you.  Since we are starting a new year (and a new decade 😲)I wanted to start sharing with you some of my favourit
