Here's my hot take: That looks fine for a flip. Neutral tones are fine. If I'm buying a house, I'd much prefer they give me a blank slate where everything functions than a bunch of weird poo poo I'm going to paint over and change anyway.

I don't mind neutral paint colors so much as gray vinyl loving everywhere replacing perfectly good hardwood floors and ceramic tile. Paint is cheap and simple to change (unless you want to return to no paint at all*), but once a higher quality material is gone it's expensive and time-consuming to replicate. *Stripping white paint from wood and brick suuucks.

Also posted this in the Magic thread, not sure which thread this question really belongs in, figured I would try it here first. Has anyone gotten a beveled mat cut especially to display Magic cards? Looking for suggestions and/or tips. My summer spent working in a frame shop is more than 20 years old now.

Watching Ask This Old House. Some dude with a 1950's house wanted to paint over the absolutely pristine avocado green bathroom wall tile because he didn't like the color. Now he's got a boring white bathroom with a lovely beige vanity counter. I hate him.

On a related note, my in-laws have a bathroom in their house with all the original tiles, sink, etc. (1920's). It's got excellent art deco type of vibes

Land in Taos is dirt cheap too...if you can figure out how to get water to the property.

Hello I have a question regarding a art print I want to frame. The print has a white border that makes it too big for the frames I have chosen (24 x 36). How difficult of a task is it to buy an exacto knife and using a ruler cut the margins off myself? The prints were a bit pricey so I don’t want to mess things up.

Pron on VHS posted:Hello I have a question regarding a art print I want to frame. The neat thing about frames is, they hide the edges of the piece. So even if your first time ever using an exacto knife frays the trim a bit, that gets concealed. Take your time, cut less rather than more, clamp your ruler down if you have clamps lying around, it'll be fine.

You should really get those custom framed instead of cutting off the border. You will be much happier with the result.

True but it costs quite a bit extra and these are just prints from fineartamerica. If it was signed by the artist or something special I would certainly get it professionally done.

I know that places like frameusa.com will make custom frames that they’ll ship you, so you don’t have to pay for them mounting it. If I remember correctly they were like 50-75 dollars for a larger format piece. If you are going to go ahead with trimming the edge pick up a drywall t-square while you’re buying the xacto knife. It’ll give you a clean straight edge.

I assume because you need to trim down your art that you are planning to have the art directly up against the frame glazing (and are not using a mat or spacers). Know that in the long term this is not good for the art and eventually it may stick to your glazing. If you use Plexi there's less of a chance of that happening compared to glass. Just something to keep in mind, for next time.
