Shading Paragraphs
For practise, type out the following text from 'National Geographic'.
"Trying to furnish a home in an ecologically conscious manner does limit your choices (which can actually make the job easier) When it came to decorating our new country home, I wanted to do it myself, so I didn't hire a designer".
"There's something about the thrill of the hunt—otherwise known as shopping—that's just too much fun to delegate. I started the process with the most eco-friendly choice of all: antiques. From both sides of my family, I've been blessed with great hand-me-downs, some of which have needed costly restoration work. But the restoration expenses were eased by
knowing that buying new furniture of comparable quality to that made 100 years ago would cost much more".
