They can be a pain this time of year (too hot!), but it's really motivating to get rid of clutter & make extra $$ too.<BR/><BR/>You asked me about painting your outdoor fixtures. I don't see why you can't do it yourself. Taking them down is really not hard & you can do it! Turn off the breaker so you don't get shocked & look for the nuts & bolts or screws that hold it in place & just take it down. You'll see the wires then where it's all connected & there should be a white, black & probably a copper grounding wire attached. Take the caps off those & pay attention to how it all goes back together. I'd use a good metal primer to spray on that brass first & then finish with a bronze or black spray paint (light coats). Let it all dry & put it back up! It will look a lot better, I promise you.<BR/><BR/>RhodaRhoda @ Southern Hospitalityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16741881774379561710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619183385978665210.post-71018776766585089962007-07-28T10:55:00.000-04:002007-07-28T10:55:00.000-04:00We're not having one, but we definitely should.. a...We're not having one, but we definitely should.. and when we do this little guide will come in handy!

I think when she's older and maybe has kids of her own she'll be glad you did. I bought a steamer trunk for my daughter and I keep things I think she'll like to have in the future there - like favorite books, special toy etc. Good luck with the garage sale - I really hate having them!<BR/><BR/>ManuelaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619183385978665210.post-63769524942318392492007-07-27T10:18:00.000-04:002007-07-27T10:18:00.000-04:00Dear Heather, I just want you to know your blog is...Dear Heather, I just want you to know your blog is PRECIOUS!
