Houseplants add a lushness and splash of organic color to any room. However, many species can be toxic to cats and dogs who may decide to munch on a leaf or two. Luckily, there are a few plants that can add beauty to your home without posing a threat to man’s best friend. These houseplants are safe for cats and dogs according to the ASPCA, but since the consumption of any plant material may cause vomiting and gastrointestinal upset, it's still best to keep all houseplants out of reach.

It seems like every season a new trendy design twist pops up that keeps our coastal homes fresh and vibrant, and 2020 is no different. This year, its all about painting the interior side of your front door! 

Instead of wasting gallons of paint on a massive accent wall, this little pop of color will provide the perfect touch of character to the inside of your home.

Once complete, it will determine congressional representation, where hundreds of billions of dollars of federal funding is spent, and will provide data that will impact communities for the next DECADE.

Imagine you have ten years worth of lunches to plan, and someone tells you to plan it for 5 people, then 10 people actually show up. That wouldn’t make for very good planning, now would it? Count yourself IN so your community receives the funding it needs!

 

Congressional Representation
