Lucifer Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 .....and make sure you're the one looking at the ceiling if you catch my drift Give over, the first thing a woman will say when having sex is that ceiling is having a "period" makeover.

Bulgarian Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 The ceiling and mouldings are around 250 years old so painting them red might not be an option. Was something on TV last night saying they used to paint coving/celings all sorts of garish colours back in the day. Only recently has magnolia become the only acceptable colour for mouldings.

mafya Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Get a can of stain block, it's a white spray used for covering mould or water marks so they don't come thru when painting. Last time I got some was from Richardsons DIY store in Firth Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxy lady Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 Get a can of stain block, it's a white spray used for covering mould or water marks so they don't come thru when painting. Last time I got some was from Richardsons DIY store in Firth Park. I went to the DIY store and they suggested something similar, but the lad told me it is only the same stuff as a regular PVA sealer. Anyhow. I gave it a go and so far all seems pretty good. The paint obviously looks a bit newer than the surrounding areas but after we've had a few log fires over the winter I'm sure it will blend in OK. Either that or invite a pipe smoker round to enjoy a good rough shag on the sofa below the new patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxy lady Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 Thanks for the tips. So far so good. It barely notices unless you study it closely, and hubby certainly hasn't mentioned it since he got home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
