City Loft by Sherwin Williams
City Loft by Sherwin Williams
Sherwin Williams City Loft is a beautiful warm white with grey undertones. While it is warm white, it is also so fresh looking. It is a great paint colour and can work well with light or dark coloured floors. I chose a white for the trim and baseboards making sure the trim was a crisp white with no yellow undertones to it. Have a look!
City Loft looks great with taupes, whites and blacks. I used the paint colour in my latest showcasing.
10 Beach Inspired Paint Colours
Happy Monday!
You don’t have to live close to the coast to enjoy beach inspired paint colours. There are so many colours that can evoke a coastal feel for the home.
Think of different shades of earth tones found in sand, shades of blue and green from the ocean and what we draw as inspiration from sea shells, coral and the various colours of stones.
Here are 10 beach inspired paint colours that will make your home feel like you are on vacation. Just think, you may not want to leave during our winter months! Here are my Sherwin Williams and Benjamin Moore picks!

Hardwood and A Home Office Makeover
Happy Tuesday!
With all of us working from home, a home office would be nice to have. We have been using our dining room table for work, but when your home has an open floor plan things can look messy. Our spare bedroom was for my dad who would spend weekends with us. He is now in a long term care facility. Making a spare bedroom into a home office makes sense for us now.
Our winters are long and I want our office to look bright even during our long winter months. I am keeping my desk but adding some much needed storage for books, a printer etc. A new ceiling light and a coat of paint should finish the room off nicely. Here are some photos, we are just getting started!
DIY Home Projects
Happy Monday!
If you are going a little stir crazy then this might be a good opportunity to do a DIY home project. Here are some easy DIY home projects that you can tackle right now! Take a look!
Add character to your walls with wainscoting. If you do not have the materials, places like Home Depot offers curb side pick up for materials ordered online.
Add a simple backsplash. Do you have tiles laying around and your own tile cutter that you never had the opportunity to use? Maybe this is the perfect time to try tiling. If you have a small job then why not?
Refresh your room with paint. Paint is a great way to refresh any room. You can paint the entire room or even just an accent wall for a quick DIY home project.
Sherwin Williams Alabaster. Or you can also paint the ceiling!
Update your bathroom mirrors, or door handles/knobs for an inexpensive refresh.
Good luck with all your DIY home projects.
Happy Easter Monday!
