My boyfriend, Dan, just moved to a new condo in SeaGrove at St. Augustine Beach. The walls are all WHITE, the trim is all WHITE, the blinds are all WHITE. I need sunglasses when I go over it is so WHITE!

He has asked me for some help adding color ... it is a bit of a task, what goes with this, is that too much with all this? I found some helpful information about the basics of the color wheel and how different schemes work.

Once he is unpacked I plan to do some before and after shots. Who knows, this could be the start of a whole new career!

Tim’s Wine Market provides local wine expertise in St. Augustine Beach. Because of their fine appreciation for wine, proprietors Kathyrn Vaughn and Michael Salley opened the 1st of the Tim’s Wines franchises in 2007. Their knowledge of wine continues to expand and they are working towards a designation of Certified Specialist of Wine. Service, selection, and value is the mission of the company.

They enjoy a casual lifestyle as reflected in the warm welcome customers receive walking through the front door. In fact, store mascot, Sabrina, a friendly great dane, will show you the way. Regular wine tastings occur at the casual bar where the wine “du jour” is liberally poured for introductory purposes. This sampling helps customers make good choices from the selection of more than 500 bottles. Wine can even be consumed by the glass on bistro-style table outdoors.

The store provides education for customers including small gatherings to scrutinize subtle difference of special wines and discussion of the wineries. In fact the web site’s education tidbit includes “The first European settlers to make wine in the United States made it near Jacksonville, Florida in 1562 from Scuppernog grapes.”

There was never any doubt that they would open in fabulous St. Augustine. Specifically, the location of their store is the SeaGrove Town Center on A1A at A Street. This is a quaint neighborhood with single family residences, condos, and a commercial district that includes local Library, Post Office, bank, Tropical Smoothie, gift store, and other commercial buildings.

You can contact Kathryn and Michael at (904) 461-0060 or visit during store hours: Tuesday – Friday 10:00-7:00 and Saturdays 10:00-5:00
