No, it isn’t. You see many expats or retired people moving back home before 2 years.
We so do. Hahaha although one can make it really cosy with candles and little fairy lights everywhere.
So you get a warm golden light in the living spaces.
Thank you so much. I started painting the living room walls antic old white. It has a yellow hue in it. Previous owners had painted some walls dark grey. It made it too dark. So I am changing it to lighten it all up.
Have a wonderful week!
Light colour paint can really do a room good! Some of these dark colours lead to depressive thoughts after a while. Unless it is a black chalk wall for a creative mind that wants to scribble and draw on it!
I can only imagine, some people are so used to what they have at home. I always think back at my brother living in the UK with their heated homes, and then back here in South Africa where the homes are the exact opposite. Such a hard thing to cope with actually haha.
Have a spending new week!
I love colours… and every wall I could paint in nice warm colours. Here the living room had such dark areas. Especially now we don’t have much daylight. I had to make them as light as possible. Finished… and it is looking really good now.
It does help with the positive thoughts too.
If I would stay longer here I would paint murals on some of the walls… let my creativity flow 🎨 but we know we are nit staying. So I better don’t start.
Chalk black is pretty cool in the kitchen. One could play with it a lot. I
Yes, it is such a difference. The complete opposite in many ways.
Thank you kindly, have a fantastic new week too 👋🏻😊
Oh, that reminds me! I need to have a black chalk walk in my kitchen when I move into a permanent place; that will make cooking even more fun.
And for sure, it is amazing what colours can do to one's emotions. It does not help to paint things dark and morbid.
Keep well, and happy new week!
Yes… write some cool old style lettering recipes on it. I can even picture it in my head hahaha with some cute images.
I so agree.
Thank you, you too… have a wonderful week.
That is the idea! And my fiance wants to learn how to cook, so I can use the wall to write the recipes down for her so that she can cook it anytime!
Have a splendid week! Stay warm.
That’s a great idea and fun in many ways. She will learn fast.
Thank you. I will.
Enjoy yours 😊
