C2 COLOR SAMPLERS CREATE QUITE A STIR -
WE CAN NOW MIX YOURS, OURS, OR THEIRS INTO A SAMPLE POT!
C2 Paint just introduced a sample pot of paint that will enable you to try virtually any color - not just colors from the C2 palette.
Using state-of-the-art technology, C2 Paint can now make almost any color you desire into a 16 oz. can of C2 eggshell-sheen paint for only $8. That's a full pint of color, enough paint to actually see what the color will look like in a finished room. The average sample pot of color on the market is 2 oz., barely enough to dip your brush into!
Ironically, most manufacturers only offer a fraction of their own colors in wet paint samples. Now you can try virtually any color utilizing C2's gorgeous 16 colorant European tint system, thereby creating more beautiful colors than most systems can create because they only have 10-12 colorants to work from.
Not only that, but if you want a tint or variation on an existing color (and not just from our palette), we can sample that for you too. Let's say you want to try C2's "Chai", but at half-strength. Or perhaps you like the color, but want it a touch more gold… Now we can sample that for you - saving you money and minimizing waste from unwanted test quarts.
C2 Paint also offers the Ultimate Paint Chip, an 18" x 24" sample of eggshell-sheen paint in every color in the palette for only $6. With C2, color samples are always made from real paint, not printers' lacquers; from the small Take Home Chips to the Color Fan Decks, Ultimate Paint Chips and now the Color Samplers.

DECORATING ALERT: HOLIDAY GUESTS
With the holiday months almost upon us, yes… holiday months, don't wait until the last minute to get ready for your guests! Daly's is here to make your experience with home decorating go a little smoother. We can help you get your guest room ready for holiday visitors.
Think relaxation, privacy and comfort. Some favorite color choices for guest rooms are in the neutral palette. This allows you to inject a dash of unexpected color throughout the space with accessories. You can do this by using bed linens, pillows, window treatments, wall coverings or small pieces of furniture.
When it comes to creating mood, selecting the right window treatment is important. Choose a window treatment that offers privacy, light-control and, of course, something that will add to the beauty of the room. One of our favorite solutions, and a design classic, is shutters.
Last, but not least, comfort! It's nice to sit down at the end of long day. Provide a small chair for the corner or next to the window. Daly's has a wide range of designer fabrics you can choose from to recover that favorite chair and make it a showstopper!
We offer a wide range of decorating services to help you with all of your needs. Our expert staff will help you with color choices, window treatments, fabrics, wall coverings, and much more. We can custom match any color for the perfect tie-in for any room. Plus, our design experts can come to you for an in-home color and design consultation. No matter what your home decorating needs, Daly's is the place to go! We will help move you one step closer to enjoying the best part of the holiday season... relaxing and sharing in festivities with your friends and family.
ASK ROBIN
Recently I received a mailer from my real estate agent friend Kathy Moeller, and it addressed the importance of conducting a home inventory. I can certainly see the value of doing such an exercise, but the idea seems overwhelming, to say the least.
But it got me to thinking, in this day and age of disaster preparedness, how prepared am I for an insurance claim?
The easiest place to start is with a photographic inventory of each room. Most of us can handle that much, right? For those who are organizationally inclined (a small group of people, I'm sure!), you can label these photos with dollar values and serial numbers and even create a file for each room with receipts and paperwork.
There is free software that can help you organize your inventory from the Insurance Information Institute called Know Your Stuff. There's even a nice little How-To video clip.
Don't forget that there is a value to most everything in your home: kids' toys, furniture, decorations and appliances. Imagine having to replace a full inventory of Barbies or Bionicles for the children… those photos can come in handy!
Remember, the key to any insurance preparation you undertake: keep a copy of your records off site.
