| Painting Chaos! |
We have been living at the villa for two years now and during that time we have been busy updating everything we can.
 |
| Ta Da! |
We have put up new fences all around, installed blinds, replaced the old hot water service, re-screened the sunroom, totally renovated the front garden, installed a dishwasher and planted a small garden out the back. We bought a new outdoor table and a BBQ and will install a shade sail to make our hot, west-facing back courtyard more liveable. Next we will update our roof and gutters, then on to the bathroom and laundry!
At the moment I am re-painting old furniture and the mirror that was my Op Shop find. It's all looking good! It's a very satisfying process making our surroundings all new again, even though it is a slow process!
wow I am really getting into the op shop revamps.. I really like the colour youve painted this furniture.. whats the name of the colour? it looks sensational!
ReplyDeleteThe colour is Dulux Surf & Dive. Thanks, we love it too!
Deletethanks for that - am writing it down in my notebook for future reference!
Deleteps sounds like youve been v busy with your revamps at your villa! must be looking all shiny and new? where are you going to locate the piece youve just painted?
ReplyDeleteThe mirror will go in my lounge area, reflecting the front garden and a little more light into the room too.
DeleteSlow and unending really, as when you get one corner good and renewed, you usually turn and see another that could use some work. But it is infinitely satisfying, I think, to make our space our own, esecpailly as artists.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the process !
Happy Sunday !
That sounds SO FUN. I love projects like these. Thank you for the photos. I love photos of others' renovations.
