Inspiration
Every gardener knows how important it is to prune trees and shrubs. From ensuring plant health to shaping growth, pruning is an essential part of proper plant care. However, most of us aren’t gardeners. Sure, we know how to grow veggies and keep our houseplants alive, but that doesn’t mean we know why, how, and when to prune a tree or shrub.

Like those of us who need to freshen up and “put on our faces” after a night’s sleep, your home occasionally needs a freshening up here and there – especially after spending the winter battling the elements. Whether your home’s due for a whole house painting or just a few touch ups, here are a few tips that’ll have you painting like a pro.
Clean, Clean, Clean
Paint doesn’t stick to dirty surfaces, so before you go spending all your time painting make sure you take the time to clean the surfaces that are getting painted.
Prep Not, Waste Lots
Ask any pro and they’ll tell you that the key to a successful paint job is doing the proper prep work before hand. That means cleaning the surfaces, scraping away flaking paint, sealing and treating bare wood, taping around windows and other areas you don’t want painted, and laying down drop cloths to ensure you don’t get paint on things not meant for painting. Prep work can be the most time consuming part of the whole process, but you’ll be glad you did it as it’ll save you from cleaning up and dealing with any mistakes you make.

We are loving the red in the kitchen with the stainless steel and dark wood. The red really pops against the other materials and creates a nice balance.
