pinksandbaby's Q&A

Joe, I speak to Jennifer, I gave them her number, but I'll try again.  Our cousin is his agent and she recommend someone to them.  I recommended Jennifer.  I haven't "seen" her, but feel free to have her email me privately.  They are good to go, but need someone to help navigate.  If she can email me some info that would be helpful, it could help me be more persuasive in getting them to contact her.  Thanks!

Thanks so much!  They are not low-income, so I'm sure they wouldn't qualify.  The tax credit is nice, and the closing costs are a good idea too.  Thanks so much, feel free to add if you think of anything else!

Seriously, every single one.  My bro and sister in law found a house today (in CT) and are ready to buy.  They are working w/ a mortgage pro, but I know this is such a smart group (no sarcasm, I'm dead serious) that I would love to hear anything you can add that s/he may not think of/know.  Thanks in advance!

I agree w/ just about everything you said J Steinberg.  The shelf w/ pegs is a distressed flat, white finish, so I was thinking of mimicking that in the molding, and yes, crown.  I don't think I'll be painting the ceiling because it's cheesy :o(  Not the idea, the ceiling, lol!  The WHOLE HOUSE needs to have the ceilings scraped, but w/ 4 small kids I just can't deal w/ that right now.  When we have them done, I'll consider that idea for sure.Thanks for your input!Oh, and yes I Love the chalkboard paint.  I did in our old house in the boys bedroom and surrounded it w/ white crown molding.  I turned a piece upside down to make a chalk tray.  They loved it (playing school and leaves messages to each other).  It's very functional for a kitchen too I think.

It's back.  I posted that a few answers down.  You're not seeing things... I guess they love me.  They really, REALLY love me ;o)

LOL Carrie!  I thought the same thing!  It must be fixed er sumpin' lol

Ummm thanks? Scott? lol jk!  I agree though, that green is not for a bedroom.  I chose it because it may be my kitchen color w/ white wainscott.  I think I will LOVE that.  Again, oak trim, doors, floors in the kitchen.  The white wainscott would take up 3/4 of the wall approx, so it wouldn't be overpowering green.  Also, the kitchen is full of light, so it'll be very bright and cheery :o)  Like me :o)  lmao

Funny, mine also came back after some home improvement posts.... curious lol

Wow Brian... that was *some* response lol!  Thanks very much!  What do you think of framing out the cork w/ molding?  White? Oak?The green btw is Eddie Bauer "Apple Green"  (valspar, Home Depot)  And yes, I am very eclectic... a Gemini you know.... lol

I've been reinstated lol!  Uh, thanks guys!
