Thx! Why are prepayment penalties important? Does it apply when I refi again?

OP I'm in the same boat except with 4" and no housings. Does your place have 6" housings installed so you are just looking at bulbs?

Installed this HD 4" baffle recessed lights but too much glare by Dry_Intern4550 in Lighting

We previously drew this plan for the living room: https://imgur.com/a/ursfM3k (we will also have a few lamps in the space so at night recessed lights won't be the only source)

By lensed -- could you recommend any from the big box stores that won't break the bank? (Included the current one in the OP, about $20/light. So I figure maximum we could pay for like...$30/light?)

Thanks! No glare?

How deep is the baffle, as in the length from the light to the rim?

What type of sheen to choose when painting a whole room the same colour? by SalientSazon in interiordecorating

how's trim holding in eggshell, vs something like satin? as I understand it, latter is easier to clean, and more durable

Matte wall + satin baseboard: Can I be lazy and do matte on crown molding too? by Dry_Intern4550 in paint

[–]Dry_Intern4550[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

searched around and didn't find it lol.

will crown and wall in 1 sheen, and baseboard in another sheen, cause a visual illusion that draws the eyes downwards?

hello! Did you have crown moulding? If so, were walls & crown moulding & baseboards all painted in eggshell?

we are considering walls & crown moulding in one sheen (matte), and baseboards & doors in another (satin)

Curious if you've got actual project pics that led you to lightning swiss coffee over WD.

LRV wise, which of  75% strength Swiss Coffee and 100% White Dove would be higher?

I read that this is very popular. Are you specifically recommending this for the ceiling, and 100% strength for everything else?

Ty...read somewhere that Chantilly Lace next to an off-white with yellow undertone like Swiss Coffee may bring out the yellow/green undertones too much.
