Renovation – part 5 – an outside paint
So while we are waiting for the new tiles to be delivered and we finally have a small break in the weather we had chance to do some outside work! We spoke to the guys at Habito again and they gave us a quote for the repairs and a repaint for outside and so they came and literally worked all day [ the weather could not make its mind up!] for 3 days and now Driftwood is a lovely beachy blue and pale cream trim… The blue we chose is actually called “Restful retreat” which is exactly what we are trying to achieve! Perfect!....
The winter sun and shade is not showing it to its best but we will do better photos of course when everything is finished!
Also the gate lock had completely rusted solid so we asked our friend James to help us out again and he removed the old lock, repositioned some bits of the gate and installed a new lock for us!
The gate is going to be a lovely dark chocolate brown when it is painted.
So just waiting for the tiles and the cooker and hob to be installed!!
