Blank Canvas Decorating

Lovely house in Belfast just completed with the help of some heavy machinery for the awkward parts. Some small masonry repairs also carried out.

Johnstone's "Rabbit's Ear" on the walls with Farrow & Ball's "Wimborne White" on some of the features. My neck and arms now in a deep shade of red to finish it off. 🌞🥵

A recent wood floor project - this was hiding untreated under an old carpet, so we brought it to life with a walnut stain, whitewash, and clear satin varnish.

Now it really looks the part, and at a fraction of the cost of new carpet or laminate!

A little shower-room mural from earlier this year - added a cormorant today upon the customer's request... Some company for the oyster catcher! 🐧

Here's a before and after for a bedroom in Bangor - fresh plaster sealed and painted and untreated beam/ribs given a few coats of ebony stain. We went for Farrow & Ball's 'Wimborne White' on the walls and ceiling - it gives a great contrast to the dark wood without being too stark! 🌳

There's a house under there somewhere - and we're gonna paint it!

Joined today by 3 dozen spiders, a handful of wasps, and 1 very surprised frog. 🕷🐝🐸

An unassuming downstairs loo made beautiful with some stunning Cole & Son wallpaper! 🌿

Freshly lined walls with 'Oval Room Blue' in Farrow & Ball's Estate Emulsion, along with an 'All White' ceiling and cornice, and 'School House White' eggshell on all woodwork. Looking good!

Today's terrifying view.

If the photo is blurry it's because I'm swaying in the breeze. 🌪😵🌪

Take a look at this stunning living room/kitchen/diner we worked on recently in Helen's Bay, including painting up the wall panels, kitchen units, and island.

We went with a combination of Farrow & Ball's 'Cromarty', 'Pigeon', and 'Vardo'.

Test run for charring my fence at home - this gives the wood a beautiful dark sheen and preserves it under a layer of carbon. 🔥
