I must admit to really enjoying painting and decorating. I find it relaxing but my poor old back doesn't think much of it!!! LOL

I love painting, as long as I'm working with bright colors. I refuse to paint anything white.

I agree - it's the prep work that stinks, but the painting is enjoyable. I have various shades of pastels throughout my house, and a touch of stenciling in metallics. I just finished painting a new mantle for my fireplace in chocolate brown and metallic copper.

I love painting, when i got to 30,i was single and bringing up both girls alone. I thought hmmmmm is this all life has to offer?? So i popped down to the local college and enrolled in a painting and decorating course! 2 years later, i was qualified, really improved my social life and made a bit of money, from doing other peoples houses. Best thing i ever did!

Erm Catkins I have a bedroom that badly needs decorating.  We could have a laugh doing it together - I might even feel inclined to feed and water you if you do a good job!!!

I can work out in the yard all day though! Change of pace thing.

I love to paint anything!! I love to be able to change the mood of room just by applying a different color to the walls! We have paneling in every room of our house and half of them have been painted!! John has told me I could paint any room I want except the livingroom.

When I was in high school, I helped my father wallpaper most of the rooms in a 22 apartment building. I have never touched wallpaper again. I am not fond of painting but it beats wallpaper any day of the week. Never again.
