PAINT MAGIC










One of my favorite resources is Sydney Harbour Paint. All water based environmentally safe, they have the most fantastic colors! With wonderful products like Lime Wash and Roman Clay even the novice painter can create exquisite painted finishes. Check out there complete collection here.

  1. Beautiful blog!
    I have enjoyed looking at it. Thanks for the info on Portor's paints! I want to try Roman clay!

  2. If you're looking for "Porters" in the US, you need to look for their US brand (since there is a different, and less inspiring porters in the US.) Look for Sydney Harbour Paints.
    ...and it's not just their colors, it's the textures and sheens that add dimension to the colors. I have some LimeWash on a interior wall (like the picture above, with the potted plants.) The sheen is so dead flat that from 3 feet back you cant tell it is over an 'orange peal' drywall texture... and it looks very much like the one here. Primer and 2 coats with a block brush. Done.
