          • Tip for the week: Moved into a new home? Soon start seeing little nicks and scratches that could easily be fixed with a little paint? Instead of opening a large can holding the desired color and pouring some into a small container collect some small mason jars, labeled the jars and lids, and fill them with paint. Place them in a plastic carryall; add a Ziploc bag of Q-tips and a few paper towels. Stored under your kitchen sink, your paint is always at your fingertips for a quick touch-up!
