... skateboard? that's new lol, maybe next time if I ever paint any place again :eek:

Hooray haha. Hubby said it looks purple, it supposed to be grey :eek: Splashback, I think I'll hold back until I can replace the entire kitchen :o

This one is not DIY, got handyman to do kitchen walls and cabinets plus doors, I have got mixed opinion on colour of choice for the cabinets, I still think it's neater in darker colour and imperfections are less apparent. What do you think?

Thank you, I do hope tenatn don't mind with the imperfections haha... I didn't feel the difference until actually going to unpainted room to the one that has been painted - it feels a lot lighter with all whites :o I think I'll get painter/ handyman for kitchen, laundry and bathroom - then need...

Lexicon quarter is what you maybe looking for? Re rent - there are rubbish in the property and in the garden so the place can't be rented until it's cleaned, getting Tradies in for painting won't make it faster to rent in my situation unfortunately, only give me less muscles pain. Apart from...

Haha, not sure how the tint the colour, but for example, Antique White USA is yellowish creamy tone, lexicon is blueish tone, whispewhite is kind of greenish white if you compare it with the like of vivid white

That's the whisper white :) greenish undertone when I combine it with white trims and ceiling. I find painting... A muscle work! And 2-3 weekends won't be enough if I don't cut corners. - the one coat ceiling paint is more difficult to apply, but in this situation, a real time saver - wall...

Haha, already bought Dulux miss green eyes. managed to get 2 roroom done, one photos here Before After

Ok, thank you wylie :)

:eek: Ok, how much does those cost??

Day 1 - Finally access to the place! the house is not broken, but it looks hell old with cockroaches, spiders, bugs and cockroaches schiit. Maybe I'm just too used to city apartments :confused: Sanding many trims, hate sanding now! For everything else, I kinda skip a couple of steps here and...

a pro in my definition Yes, will take a long time to do this :-/ do you think 1 weekend with 2 people will get this done? Just the regular dulux ceiling paint? ARGH, I'm thinking of water based enamel, so all skirting etc need to be sanded, washed, primed then painted :eek: I will take...

Quick update on colours I choose, decided with something real safe for interior 1. Walls - dulux wash and wear 15L - Whisper White 2. Ceiling - dulux once - just the basic white 3. Trims (to be bought) - Dulux aquanamel - Vivid White Also got a small 2L 3in1 primer/ undercoat Exterior -...

Am thinking of lighter grey as the brick is quite orange. Pure grey will look weird no? (Not colour expert here mind ya)

I have a good roll of plastic drop sheet, got it for free as I have some access to supplier (plus $1-$2 for sanding blocks that usually cost 3-4 times in RRP). Still have not include potential external paint, can't think of a colour for this one. :o Beige with grey tinge and white trim...

Thanks guys, my updated wish list for now The unwanted, not on agreement tenant has not left the property unfortunately, so I won't be able to do anything until then :( but will have time to plan :)

Thank you miss green eyes, I was thinking of Antique White USA (looked at the sample of 1/4 Hog Bristle and it's a bit too creamy for me), might need to look at a couple of different shades :) I'll book Thai massages after this is done... (or if I can get really cheap good painter instead...

You think so?? How bout a couple bottle of wine instead? :D PM if you don't mind sharing?

Will your tradie travel to Rutherford for me? :D:p

Yes, I am pretty sure I'd regret starting after a couple of hours haha Both hubby and I do have back pain (his worse) so we need to be careful, music should be covered I think (and I have phone to browse when resting ;)
