Transform your home with Pride & Joy's top painting tips

 Give your home a burst of colour with Pride & Joy

Give your home a burst of colour with a lick of paint. Use these tips from Pride & Joy to make it all really easy too!

  1. Plan ahead- Not knowing where to start is one of the most common worries when decorating so decide in advance what you need to do first. Map out your ideas in detail and be certain of the design direction that you want to head in. 

  1. Stand out with a feature wall- Painting one wall of a room in a different colour to the rest can refresh your home in an instant while creating a focal point. For example, using a striking shade of red such as PJ 9386 on just one wall can make a room feel brand new.

  1. Mix it up with patterns and prints- Patterns can be tricky to get right in your home and very easy to get wrong! Sticking to one bold print or pattern per room and using less attention-grabbing prints elsewhere is a good way to incorporate fun patterns into your home without going overboard.

  1. Paint the stairs- Why stop at the walls? Painting your stairs can be a great way to add character to your home whether you paint them a bright or neutral shade. The Futura Aqua range from Pride & Joy is perfect for use on wood and metals.

  1. Wash up- After a day of decorating, washing your tools is a chore but it can be simpler than you think. Wash your brushes with soap and warm water or white spirit if you are using oil-based paint. Then wrap the bristles in a folded kitchen towel and let them dry. To avoid having to wash up your roller tray, why not try covering it in a plastic bag before you start painting and then just throw the bag away afterwards? Easy!
