Licks of Paint.. Coffee Time!

This weekend Hubby and I have been down to our local Bunnings and picked out some paint for our walls throughout the house.

 Living in a 3 bedder, split level brick built in 1974 has it's challenges.. Colour pallet being one of these challenges. When we moved in a little over 3 years ago the potential of this place is what caught my eye.. It had pretty nice lines and spaces, but the bright lime green carpet and dirty brownish-greyish-with a touch of green walls was definitely  NOT a selling point.

Hubby has complained about the walls and patchwork done here and there endlessly.. And Finally - after prep-ping last night.. The painting began!! The colour chosen was called 'Coffee Time' In certain light it had an almost apricot tinge..and I wasn't very impressed.. But only one coat down - perseverance is the key!

So I've got to get back to it and I will post some pics when complete!

Here you can see the colour we are painting- 'Coffee Time'
against the old  paint job. The almost chocolate milkshake-like
colour really adds so much warmth..

Miss Tamar and Miss Willow are helping to paint too..  

                      

                                          Looking good..

                 

                       The vase of Lillies (My favourite flower)
                          looks lovely against the newly painted walls.. Just excuse the
                                 paint spillage on the window sill - They will be painted
                       at a later stage.. Not fond of the brown either!
