Easter Reno Sneak-Peek!

We can't have the Easter long weekend roll around and not get our paint brush and roller out...so here's a sneak peek at what we have been up to today!

This is the room we currently use as our walk in dressing room - it is actually a single bedroom but we use it to keep all our clothes and 'stuff' out of our main bedroom.  

This is the 'before' shot of the wall colour... a light lilac purple was in this room...

Jeremy was sweet enough to move all the furniture out from the walls early this morning and prep the room...whilst I was having a sleep-in!

The colour we have chosen for this room is the same teal blue that we have used in our bedroom.  It's called "Santiago Blue" by British Paints.  We love the depth of this colour...and the fact that it's not purple!

The first coat went on really easy - we have learnt a few tricks from doing the other room such as rolling and cutting in at the same time to avoid too obvious a 'picture frame' look; and that the thicker the paint on the roller the better!

Today was rainy and quite a bit cooler so the paint was drying slowly which was great news for all those tricky cutting in areas such as the window.

Here it is the first coat on!  Love it!

Will post some completed photos once the second coat is on and furniture is back where it's meant to be :)
