Interior painting for our house

It has been 5 years now since we moved into our house, due to budget constraint, we only afford to do some refurbishment and painting before moving in, it was not a renovation but simply touched up on the falling ceiling and gave the dirty and peeling off walls some painting.

We have been wanting to give a new look to our house, needed a change of feng shui to enhance the good luck chi coming into our home.  At the moment, most of the interior walls are painted white except our bedrooms are pink.  It was my idea to have white walls during that time because my eye sights are poor, white tends to brighten up the house easier especially during the night.  The paint somehow faded over the years, It is time to repaint our house.

The first thing we ask ourselves is what color should we choose this time for a fresh new look.  There are four of us in the house, each one of us has different preference...blue, purple, beige, brown or combination of few colors ??   We ended up arguing, thus, the project is still on hold.  How I wish we could hire a professional painter like hingham painters to take care of the project, from initial planning, giving us the advise on the colors, the budget, time frame of completion, and guarantee of quality work done.  One thing I dislike about refurbishment is the cleaning up the mess after that.  We have to move the furniture and fittings to make way for the painting, the mobilization itself will tend to cause damage to our furniture, we have to take all these into account if we were to do the project ourselves, which we do not have the expertise to handle all these..the best solution would be to hire a professional painter to take care of this for us.

  2. I fully agree that giving your home a fresh coat of paint and new colours would brighten the Feng Shui to greater heights. Just an advice from some gurus that pink should be avoided if possible as it could sometimes bring sickness related to blood.

    I also heard that moving around the furniture positions would also enhance the chi. Good luck and photos please!!

  3. Agreed, professional painters are the best. They can suggest the colours, then again, it is which colour we are comfortable with.

  6. You are right, white brightens up the house and makes the house looks bigger, so my house is all painted white, but sometimes I do have this craving for fancy colours for my house but still in the end still end up with white cos we are not that adventurous

  8. Yap, we should always give our home a fresh coat of paints every few years. It's a messy job, so I usually leave it to the professional painters. xoxo
