Mobile Renovation projects keeping busy

Should have been in Spain this week with friends. To keep busy I ordered some fantastic paint recommended by my sister. The hall table was originally dark indian rubber wood which I painted with awful chalk paint. So its had a makeover hard to see the colour difference but it's gone from grubby gritty cream to soft grey.


My daughter painted that.
I tackled the corner unit that has been on my hit list for years 🤓


Really pleased with them and took my mind of my holiday x

Great job on the unit.
It’s good to keep busy, we have printed 5 rooms plus the hall stairs and landing. We have also overhauled the garden. So in essence we have done painting that probably would have been done over the next five years.

They look lovely!

We’ve re-built half a fence- waiting to be able to buy fence panels.
Sanded and stained our kitchen worktop.
Started painting the front fence but have ran out of paint.
Currently painting DS room.

I quite enjoy painting!

My sister swears by this stuff and I have to say it's really easy to use. Paints like a dream. Unfortunately most of it is out of stock on their website had to wait 3weeks for this tin as they were overwhelmed. Worth seeing if someone stocks it near you. I went for wolf whistle.

You can use it on wood laminate and metal. Trying to encourage my other sister to paint her kitchen cupboards as she hates them.

I've painted the fence country cream to go with my picket fence but I've run out of paint for now.

They look lovely OP! I too am taking my mind off the fact I should be in Florida right now 😢 and found some mouldy directors chairs, which were ready for firewood, gave them a wash down with bleach and a paint with Cuprinol garden shades...
