So, I don’t just preach, I also practice.
To clean up the air in my own home I purchased some purifying houseplants and am trying my darndest not to kill them with my black thumb!
I also took a look at the no voc paints at the local lumberyard to brighten up the living room. I found a brand called Freshaire Choice that has paints and colorants that have no volatile organic compounds.
What I discovered, however, is that no voc paints are also no fun paints.
The color palette for voc free paints was, not surprisingly, earthy. While I’m quite content with a natural color scheme, my husband was hoping for something in more of a knock-your-socks-off orange.
Hmm. Maybe no voc paints are a blessing in disguise!!!
