Refresh your home for 2023!

Painting your home can be an easy and cost-effective way to give it a new look, create a fresh atmosphere, and create an environment that reflects exactly how you’re feeling in life right now. 

Whether you’re looking to brighten up just one wall, one room or your entire home from top to bottom, a simple lick of paint is a great way to get the job done. Here are some of the main benefits of painting your home to give it a refresh this year! 

It doesn’t have to be expensive

First of all, one of the things that holds people back from painting their home is the cost, but what they don’t know is that painting can be a relatively inexpensive way to update your home. 

While some other home improvement projects can be expensive, painting requires minimal supplies and is usually a much cheaper option. In addition to this, you do not have to be an expert to paint and decorate your home - you just need your painting supplies!

Plus, if you’re on a budget, you can easily buy sample pots of paint to test out colours before committing to a larger purchase.

It’s expressive

Painting is also a great way to express your personal style. With the vast array of colours, finishes, and textures available, you can easily create a unique and personalised look for your home. You can even mix and match different colours and finishes to create a bespoke look that cannot be found anywhere else. 

For example, you could opt for Luxurious Suede Textured Matt Emulsion from the Crown Crafted range.

Crown Crafted Luxurious Suede Textured Matt Emulsion offers a unique, soft textured finish for your interior walls. This textured paint provides a beautiful natural brushed look.

Crafted by Crown Luxurious Suede Textured Matt has been developed using ground olive stone to create a soft finish to instantly change the appearance of your home.

Available in 6 sumptuous colours including Chocolate Suede Textured, Soft Grey Suede Textured and Fawn Suede Textured.

Suede not for you? Metallic may be! Using Crown Crafted Lustrous Metallic Emulsion, you can give your home a shimmery upgrade with Crown's lustrous metallic paint, giving you a shimmering finish that is extremely versatile making it an ideal choice for making your home reflective of you and your personality.

It reinvents your space!

Re-decorating your home with paint can also be a great way to freshen up the atmosphere and transform the space entirely. A new coat of paint can instantly brighten up a room and make it look and feel more inviting. You can also choose different colours to create different moods in each room, such as light and airy colours for bedrooms and calming blues and greens for living rooms. 

One of the brands that is popular across the country is Earthborn; a brand with paints that are both stylish and environmentally friendly. Known for no nasty smells or emissions, they are breathable, safe to use in every room of your home and incredibly, better for the environment. 

Paint Direct’s most popular choice is the Earthborn Claypaint which covers well and often needs one coat less than conventional paints. Other products include Earthborn Eco Chic, an ideal option when painting furniture and the Earthborn Lifestyle Emulsion, a durable and washable emulsion.

It can protect your home!

Finally, painting is a great way to protect your walls from everyday wear and tear. A good quality paint will help to protect your walls from scratches, scuffs, and stains, while also ensuring your walls look great for longer, especially if you opt to use specialist paints, such as those that inhibit mould growth, those that are washable and those that have special finishing properties.

Painting your home is a great way to give it a makeover and create a new atmosphere. From being a relatively inexpensive option to creating a unique look, painting can be a great way to update your home. So, why not give it a go today and start transforming your home into your own personal haven?
