Job for the weekend

We had our lounge, hall, stairs and landing decorated professionally at the end of September.

We are decorating the back bedroom ourselves. It was once Kirsty's bedroom and then she decide to switch from back bedroom to front bedroom (claire said kirsty bribed her with 50p to do so) It's had various colour schemes in the past, bright primary colours when kirsty was a little girl , bright girly pink when she was a teenager. It was previously a beige / brown mix (well it was trendy once) but now it is going to be magnolia.

This is me deciding my paint pot a brush might make for a shot on my 365

I got two coats of emulsion on all four walls and the ceiling. The brown wall will need another. White gloss tomorrow !

Cmon Phil - satinwood/eggshell - gloss is ya '80's vibe.

[Judith Johnson]

Sounds like you've been busy Phil! @sleepdozer57 I did use satinwood in our recently decorated living room but it's not as hard-wearing.

[Maggiemae]

This room is going to be a lot smaller with all those coats of paint on the walls!

[Phil Howcroft]

@sleepdozer57 actually it is satinwood Peter :) , but if still says gloss on the tin !!!

@busylady thanks judith :) LOL

@maggiemae indeed maggie :) :)

[Allison Williams]

[peter/zipp]

[Sue Wilde]

[Kerri]

Awesome

[Myrna O'Hara]

Love the color name. and shade

[Dione Giorgio]

I got rid of all the different colours for the rooms decades ago, Phil. The whole house is painted in magnolia and sometimes I do patchwork rather than paint a whole room. Very often I do it myself, too.

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

Hope the painting's going well, cool diary shot, love the angle.
Which would you rather be doing, taking photos or painting walls? ;-)

[Phil Howcroft]

@dulciknit painting finished Alison, now for new accessories !!!
Taking photos is much more fun than painting walls :)

[Gena Pegg]

Well done....and would like to see the finished project! Love the color...I love painting but hate the prep and clean up. Give me a brush or roller and I'll paint all day.

[Phil Howcroft]

@eyesmile well we have some more painting jobs to do in the next bedroom Gena ....I wish I had your enthusiasm for a brush and roller :)
