A fresh coat can make all the difference āØ
Nothing beats seeing an exterior come back to life with a fresh coat of masonry paint. From dark and dated to crisp, bright and ready to face the elements again š¤š
Finished using Isle of Skye Masonry Paint , made for homes that see real Highland weather.

A short but sweet trip up to the beautiful island of Skye to see @skye_paint . Yesterday I went to @monkstadt1745 to discuss a new art project for their recently renovated Beacon cottages. I picked the colour and wallpaper scheme for the guest bathrooms of these twin cottages a few months ago and it was great to see this completed. We used Spar Cave paint by @skye_paint on the panelling with a soft pink called Pride of Summer on the walls and a feature wallpaper of the Trotternish Ridge landscape I painted as part of @skye_paint 's wall mural collection.
I now need to get my thinking cap on for a bespoke art project for these cottages. Very exciting!
I also visited the owners of @ullinishhouse (which has the most stunning seaside views) for a colour consultation for one of the cottages being renovated and we picked a gorgeous scheme of colours to create a restful interior scheme with linen and lichen earthy tones.
Lots of driving about the island which is a joy in weather like this, and a swim at Staffin beach in the afternoon was gorgeous.
Heading back to Glasgow now...

Time to paint another room⦠although this room is two for one! Where do you think we are putting this gorgeous colour?

Green paint | Green room | Redecorating | Ban the beige
Marsco takes its name from the striking peak in the Red Cuillins , known for its breathtaking views across Skye and out to sea.
A mid-toned neutral that reflects that same quiet strength and beauty, bringing a sense of calm to your home.

Everyone should have a green ceiling!
I have several!
I might count them tomorrow!
The Pink Bedroom now is complete with green doors and woodwork- and I am very happy!
Thats all I have to say about it!
White door and ceiling gone and I am happy!!
Pink is sulking room pink and the Green is my new favourite Kinloch Forest by @skye_paint

Have a Good Friday

I donāt care if you think neutrals are boring⦠I love them š¤
This room started as plain white (budget build reality š )
And itās taken years to slowly get here
We added warmth, decided to colour drenchā¦
and honestly itās completely changed the feel
Still calm
Still neutral
Just so much better
Not finished (need a mirror š)
But this is what real timelines look like
Be honest⦠white or warm? š
Sometimes I just need to paint something!! I find it very therapeutic!
Today I decided to paint a wee table that in 2020 was my first ever upcycling project!
But today it was getting more colourful treatment. I decided I needed a pop of red in my Green Smoke Hall. As you do!
At my @mingleandhome event we all got a tester pot from @skye_paint . This colour is Red Cuillin!!!
Isn't it fabulous.
And I didn't even use the whole tester pot!
How lovely is it!
Swipe to see it when I got it from Marketplace!
I am so taken with it- I am off for a gin to celebrate . First time out in over a week! The lurgy has lifted! Woo hoo!
What could you paint with one tester pot??
Here it is⦠our newly painted home office - from stark white walls to soft, warm and inviting colour drench (ok not the skirting boards). I love how cosy this space feels now with the colour we chose⦠and it perfectly picks out a shade of the rug. I also finally added my first ever rechargeable lights on the walls⦠soft lighting is a must for me in an office and lights in different places to cover all options for lighting throughout the year. All I have to do is wave my hand and the lights come on or dim⦠magic! Just like the wall colour.
