Perfect paint


It's amazing how a little paint can really make something sparkle or it give a fresh look when you thought it was drab and surely needed replacing before. A cheap yet effective option. I need to take my paint brush to things around our home. And I need to be more adventurous just like these fabulous pink stairs! Kellie xx

  1. I really struggle with being brave with paint as well. I know the impact it can have and how relatively cheap of a change it can be, but...well I just get scared to paint certain things lol

    Love those pink stairs!!

  3. Those pink stairs are great! I just love how a can of paint can transform a space and change the mood of a room. Just as long as you don't have to paint the ceilings! I was sore for days after doing that! Have fun painting!:)-Jennifer

  7. Oh Kellie,
    If only I could be that brave. I'm afraid it's not in me to use brightly coloured paint..... but, I don't choose bright colours as I know that I will tire of them very quickly although, I admire people who do. XXXX

  8. The pink just adds a little extra something. I think it freshens up the house with that little pop of colour.

  10. Aloha,
    I absolutey love paint for a few reasons.

    It is economical

    it can completely change a space

    it creates a clean fresh feeling

    it offers good exercise and a sense of accomplishment

    And if it is the wrong color?? you paint over it!
    The best painting tip I ever got was to use baby blue as a primer color when trying to paint over a dark color. Works great and you don't have to use tons of coats to enjoy your fresh new color:)
    Aloha
