hemway's 2021 Wrapped - Paint and Decorating Inspiration

We love this serene baby changing station, upcycled with our Racing Green Chalk Paint. They've created additional depth to the dresser by layering paint around its bevelled edges. This contrasts brilliantly and makes for a fresh, calming atmosphere paired with rich natural tones such as pine and oak used in the wooden fittings. The white walls do a remarkable job to emphasise the different colours of the room.

Look how these mid-century textures and patterns bring a sense of luxury and lushness to this living space. It's as peaceful as it is interesting with the layering seen from the framed landscape, pillow and lamp. Our French Grey Chalk Paint is a wonderful match for the upcycled console table.

See how this Dark Moss Green feeds the soul with the freshness of life. The mid-tone green palette compliments the off-white wall paint and really adds to the serenity of the room. The potted plants and linen draw-faces instantly give the space a relaxed, bohemian feel.

This old Edwardian fireplace shows its' treasured artefact against a neutral backdrop, breathing new life with a Jet Black Chalk Paint mantlepiece. Decorated using a few simple clean elements while maintaining that Edwardian gothic feel with an ornamental skull, a wonderful contemporary take on a traditional style.

The characteristics of the liquid rock we call concrete repel many but the way our community DIYers work with the material radiates optimism for ornamental concrete. Take this plant pot with its strobe blue backdrop bringing an uplifting fresh tranquillity to a material often associated with emphatic dogma.
