I know it's not finished yet but even after just 2 coats of undercoat, my front door is looking amazing!! I am so pleased with it!! 😊 I'd like to replace the gold handles and letterbox but haven't found anything suitable yet. I also repainted the 'wonky' wall OH sanded but it still needs a bit of work. But, the end is now in sight!
Looking good! Is redecorating how you plan to spend your holiday? Hope you will take some time to relax and recharge your batteries.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm hoping to get my dining hall completely finished since I've been working on it for a couple of months now. I quite like painting so it is kinda relaxing for me. Also planning some gardening and sewing :-)
DeleteWhat a difference the white makes. I'm trying to persuade hubby to paint our window surrounds white but he likes 'natural' wood which I think looks dated now plus it needs varnishing if its to stay natural and he hates varnishing!! I'm sure my powers of persuasion will win out in the end :D Enjoy your holidays, hopefully the weather will be kind and allow a few gardening days. x
ReplyDeletePainting everything white really has made a difference. It's been a real pain to sand and clean first but worth it. I wouldn't choose this style of door but it's solid and well fitted (no drafts get through) so I'm making use of what I've got. A new one would cost several hundred quid so keeping it is very frugal!!
DeleteThanks! I've also been decluttering so it definitely looks airy and bigger!! :-)
