Can’t Think Of The Right Gift?
Give A Fresh Coat Of LOVE
The Painter’s Rag:
Monthly Wit And Wisdom
From Your Friendly And Professional Fine Painting Company
During this season of gratitude, as indicated by the Thanksgiving holiday we all just enjoyed, there are many things we can be thankful for, and sometimes gratitude can come from the strangest places.
For instance, a friend of a customer of ours – a guy who might possibly be named Rick, though we can’t really remember – called to tell us how thankful he was for (wait for it) his mother’s failing eyesight.
“Say what?” we responded, possibly due to our failing hearing.
“That’s right,” said Rick, or whoever he was. “I was so thankful for Mom’s vision problems when she complimented the interesting new wallpaper pattern we had in our dining room during Thanksgiving dinner.”
“What did she like about it?” we asked.
“No idea,” said Rick. “But the fact is that our dining room wallpaper has so many stains and gouges and rips after years of family abuse, it probably just looked like some kind of whacky new design to poor ol’ Mom.”
“I see,” we responded.
“Well, she didn’t,” Rick said. “And when we went by her place later this weekend, we saw that she and Dad also have a whacky new wallpaper design, and they don’t even have wallpaper. What I mean is that our place needs a fresh coat of love, and my folks’ place is even worse!”
We knew right then that Rick had come to the right place.
“You’ve come to the right place,” we said. “This is our slow season here at Imhoff Fine Residential Painting, which means we can have a crew of talented, highly-trained, expert and good-looking painters over to your place right away to make your walls, well, less interesting.”
“That’s great!” said Rick. “But money’s a little tight right now. I called you because I want the job done right – but maybe we should hold off on our place for a while and start by having you spruce up Mom and Dad’s.”
Little did Rick know it, but the good news was about to keep coming.
“The good news keeps coming, Rick!” we said. “It just so happens that we offer a whopping discount this time of year – 15% off labor on the type of project you’re describing – and that means you might have enough money to get both places a fresh coat of LOVE!”
Yes, to make a long newsletter short, both Rick AND his parents are scheduled for a spruce-up, at our low-low holiday rates, in the very near future.
And Rick has come to realize what so many savvy Denver shoppers have always known: A fresh coat of LOVE is ALWAYS the PERFECT gift idea!
Especially for those hard-to-buy-for parents, or even your grandparents.
So, if you or your loved ones, have “interesting” walls… give us a call to see if your project qualifies for our whopping holiday discount. Because nothing says “Happy Holidays” like a fresh coat of love from your friends at Imhoff Fine Residential Painting Company!

(* Prize is at the sole discretion of Doug Imhoff, his heirs and assigns, and a select faculty of optical care professionals and art collectors. Together, you may expect these folks to have a good eye for interesting stuff on walls. Top prize this month – other than the whopping 15% discount mentioned above! – is probably so stupendous that you wouldn’t believe it anyway, so you will just have to enter to find out what it is. Deadline is interesting. Boring, lackluster, or unimaginative entries will be forwarded to your eye doctor, in case they see any merit to it. This will be unlikely, so send the good stuff. Best of luck!)
