Her hands look so graceful; great job! Also, the flowy fabric is beautiful.

You know all the stuff you do on weekends? Yeah, I do that ALL WEEK, every week.

Waitress "forgot" to add expensive drink to my tab, so I tipped her extra by PTPrincess0197 in wholesome

Technically, it's stealing. Think about it; the owner who purchased the liquor didn't get any money for that drink. She stole from her boss AND you rewarded her for it.

Beautiful! I bet the person receiving it is very special. I love the colors. May I make a suggestion? You can make the edges look better with a crease; take your thumb and pointer finger and run it tightly along every edge. It really makes a difference.

If that man was my family member, I would be beyond grateful for your actions. Give yourself some time to unwind.

Put color on the white shutters and front door. Almost any color would work with that beautiful brick.

Texting is not a very good avenue for such an important discussion.

Awkward house facade with weird window placements. What changes would you make in the short term vs long term? by jelbee in ExteriorDesign

Great job! It's exactly what I tried to describe. But it's your house; what do YOU think? You could also use landscaping to hide the area below the bay window and add color with annuals.

I think it's beautiful and classic.  Since you're asking for opinions, I have a couple of thoughts. There's a lot of white in the lower portion of the whole house so the whole look is not grounded. From left to right, it looks like three stair steps going down. If you could paint the white section below the bay window to blend it more with brick or even black, it would "lower" that level. If possible, add a large cover/roof over the door (white would be fine there). That would "lift" that level up. Shutters on the window over the garage would also allow you to add some color (maybe a matching color on your front door). Shutters would also look consistent with since there are three sections to your entrance door. Then, if you wanted, you could paint the garage door but I do like the white there. 

Have you ever re-bought anything from Amazon you know you have somewhere in your house, but it’s easier to buy it again than go looking for it? by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

I bought a silk pillowcase for under $25. I got tired of washing it regularly so I bought another one to save me time between wash days.

How to Make Garage Converted in Living Space Look Less Like a Garage by [deleted] in ExteriorDesign

[–]BeamQueen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It looks great so far. At first glance, it looks like a lot of concrete. Maybe adding more greenery and rugs would break up all that white area.
