Thanks for asking.. I am so happy.. the house was so decayed so we decided to rebuild the same look of a 100 year old cottage but move all the living to the front for the river view.. so happy we did it and went for light grey and white and yellow.. so pleased and we have people in the park comment.. we could not go any bigger because of council and flood zone but it makes it special as it is. Some pictures I just took.. I took a picture of the outlook so you can see why it feels just right.. still work to do as in the gardens and just finding the right plants to put in as it is full sun. Will ask for help on that one too to make it feel cottagey but not block the view. Thanks again for asking. Karen

Try Dulux Windspray in half strength.

I'd leave it black but consider painting the fence black (sorry, bit of a job). You'll be very pleased with the results. The fence will 'disappear', blending in with the fence your eyes won't rest on it at all. Your pool and pot plants will be the star. If you decide on a different colour I'd still suggest you paint the fence to match.

I just had a new side fence put up in Ironstone and added a fence to the house in monument. They blended really well. Yesterday started spraying the back fence with Ironstone and it looks great. The greenery of the shrubs looks so much more accented and the fence looks further away than the o,Der section in river gum. Can't wait to finish it. Hope this helps your decision making. Lyn
