It is now the perfect time to get outside and add some colourful cheer to your outdoor space. Whether you have a garden, porch or just a front door, a little update with a tin of natural paint can go a long way in adding flair and colour. The front door is the first thing that friends, family and visitors see when they come to your home, so consider giving it a fresh coat of paint in a new colour. Popular colours include greens and blues. Aquatic and Light Olive Green are two options that will add both a timeless and stylish look to the entrance of your home. Vert de Mer is a striking green/blue if you can’t decide between the two. All you need is a dry day to decorate your front door… you can get the job done in a day! If you’re not sure how to start, follow our step by step guide to exterior painting. Light Olive Green Aquatic.

Lighter tones tend to reflect more light, making the entrance feel bright and open. This stylish pink is so versatile and will look just as chic on a contemporary townhouse as a country cottage.

Don’t forget there are two sides to a door or window frame. Rather than sticking with traditional white or beige, try soft pastels for a subtle pop, or deep tones like Pompadour or Invisible Green for a modern contrast. By adding colour to the interior woodwork you can make a big different with a small update. Invisible Green is a particularly effective colour when painted on internal window frames as it will tie the inside and out, at Edward Bulmer Natural Paint we love to bring the outside in.

Jonquil and Pompadour, illustrated here in this pretty kitchen demonstrate perfectly how a soft pastel can sit alongside a stronger deeper tone. To prepare your internal woodwork for painting, follow our helpful step-by-step guide. Jonquil and Pompadour Bright colours will always bring cheer to a room. If you don’t want to paint the entire room in such a vibrant colour, choose to focus on the woodwork and create a striking effect. Persian on these window frames create a spectacular finish. Persian.
