In this issue we have inspiring ideas for creating cosy yet fresh, practical and modern looks both inside and out...
We're hoping you've had a fun time with DIY projects over the last few months and are now looking ahead to what autumn and winter might bring. While, traditionally, we might think of this time of year as one for hanging up the DIY tools, there are still plenty of exciting DIY interior design or maintenance projects you can turn your hand to when it's colder or wetter outside.
In this issue we have inspiring ideas for creating cosy yet fresh, practical and modern looks both inside and out, whether it's a surprise drop of wallpaper, ideas for designing with wood, fun DIY projects or our top tips for keeping moisture at bay over the cooler months. We hope there's something that will inspire you and help you keep your home looking and feeling great.
We've got everything you need for your decorating projects inside out. Come in and have a chat to our friendly and expert team at your local Resene ColorShop or reseller for all the help and advice you need.
Happy decorating!
