Can you help me decorate our home gym-office?
Comments (19)Also have a dual purpose room. We did inexpensive white shelving units around two walls, with fabric boxes to stash stuff, (office, and my "crafty" supplies), threw in a few decorative items. Got a tall basket for rolled up mats/foam roller storage, a complementary lower basket to throw in the requisite elastic bands, small hand weights, etc. Decorated walls with pics from our travels, framed with colored mats....See Moregive me some idea
Comments (6)I was bought up on a farm ( my dad was a farmer and agricultural contractor ) and in the late 70's/early 80's , as a teenager working in the busy times , occassionally a farmer would say he wanted his paddock ploughed or hay mowed , and would say it is 6 chains by 8 chains or something . How long will that take ? What will it cost ? Even Dad would just shrug his shoulders and say it depended on so many factors -- we'll do it , we'll send you a bill , we've been going 20 years and most customers still use us , but if you think the bill is too little , let us know . I still have no idea how big a chain is , or even an acre or hectare ( visually ) and while I can guess if a house is less than 100 sq mtrs or over 200 , or a section under 400 mtrs or over 1000 , I rely on others for the exact bits haha . I'm 6 ft 3 or 1.9 mtrs , and my car does at least 250km/h , and my credit card worked yesterday and probably will today . Thats the only stats I need to know haha ....See MoreWho would you hire to advise on house exterior makeover?
Comments (3)Actually , there's a couple of problems with the house IMO . It is predominantly a slightly blueish grey ( surfmist or similar ) with a mid to light charcoal roof . Safe and on trend . BUT I can't even tell if the garage door is wood or steel , but its trying to look wood in its brown tone . And the 2 veranda poles are timber . The bricks around the garden are orangey , the fence or gates to the right looks charcoal but the one to the left is greeny grey with charcoal surrounds . Basically , it is all over the place , and all over the pallette . Get some charcoal , and do it all in charcoal . It will look co-ordinated and on-trend ( which I dislike , but you probably don't want my other suggestion , which would be to redo the garden wall in a stucco concrete painted the surfmist , clad the pillars in a charcoal schist or similar stone , change the garage door to an actual cedar door , etc ) . $500 of paint/stain , and whatever you choose on landscapiing ; or $15-20k of stone and door and concreting plus still landscaping . The second option would probably add the cost to resale , but I assume you probably don't want to spend that right now and/or don't want to sell right now , hence my cheap but safe upgrade ....See Morecould anyone please give me some tips on decorating this house?
Comments (4)So much potential here. Start by buying an interiors magazine eg "inside out". Choose something in a slick modern style in colours you like. Now find a similar colour palette already put together... If you are new to decorating, grab an interiors paint decorating catalogue from bunnings and choose a colour scheme out of it that more or less matches the inpiration magazine pics. Now collect samples of bench tops from kaboodle in bunnings... again use your magazine inspo as a guide for something similar. You can paint the cabinetry with white knight paints..see cherie barber youtube clip on how to. Update tapware to modern black. Curtains ..for starters..try to get off the rack s old sheers from freedom. Black or white or neutral ....See Moreerinsean
