| 0:11.5 | I'm Anita Joyce here with Kelly Wilkness, and this is Decorating Tips and Tricks, |
| 0:16.2 | Episode 372, Pick the Right, White, and that is hard to say. It's also hard to do. It is hard to do. |
| 0:26.3 | But not after you listen to this episode. No, and we're talking about paints, how to pick |
| 0:32.2 | the right color white paint because, you know, there's thousands of options out there. And I can see it. You can make |
| 0:38.5 | your head spin trying to decide which one is right for your home. Yeah. And everybody struggles with this. |
| 0:44.0 | You know, there are very few people that are just like, yep, that's right. That's, you know, |

| 1:31.7 | just like one. I don't even know that they had white, but whatever. Yeah, but I think the thing here |
| 1:36.9 | is once you kind of know generally the type of white you need, I think you're more than halfway there. Because, you know, |
