There are literally thousands of designs to choose from so coming up with something to suit your interior should be easy. Actually no, it probably will be hard to actually narrow down the choice to just one design.<br /><br />In 2014 we saw a lot of feature walls being wallpapered to create a real "wow factor". Everything from contemporary walls with large bold patterns right through to traditional damasks and stunning murals. It's also good to see people getting a little more daring and using wallpaper on more than just one feature wall. A lot of people experiment at first with a feature wall but quickly see the great results and want more.<br /><br />As Brisbane wallpaper installers we have traveled all over the city wallpapering houses, apartments, new homes and renovations. It's been great to see so many transformations but the best part is the look of amazement on our clients faces when they see their beautiful wall. They can't wipe the smile off their faces which is very satisfying for us.<br /><br />In 2014 business owners took to wallpaper like ducks to water. The smart business owner can see how just one feature wall of wallpaper can so easily and instantly add that special point of difference to their business. Changing the entry and interior to a shop, cafe, restaurant etc makes the space inviting and enticing. Customers want to enter that space and feel welcomed. Wallpaper does that.<br />
<br />Looking forward to an amazing 2015 covering the walls of Brisbane.<br /><br />

<br />
Art Deco was a style centred around streamlined finishes, clean lines, mirrored furniture, crystal lighting and silky fabrics. The Art Deco era was all about fun, fashion and parties which was reflected in the architecture and decorating.<br />
<br />
The Art Deco style is still popular today and is enjoying a bit if a revival thanks to movies such as "The Great Gatsby"<br />
<br />
At Wow Wallpaper Hanging we enjoy installing wallpaper and seeing the excitement on people's faces when they see the finished result. Wallpaper definitely adds impact to any room whether large or small. In fact it often adds the most appeal in small areas such as landings, bulk heads and alcoves.<br />
<br />
Please enjoy the following video that we put together to showcase some of the beautiful Art Deco wallpaper that is available.<br />

A painted feature wall was the big thing a few years ago but today in 2013 it's definitely wallpaper. A feature wall using wallpaper has many advantages because the range of wallpaper designs are so numerous. Incorporated into many designs are metallics, glitter and textured surfaces. This all gives amazing depth to the wall and draws the eye. Wallpaper can also be quite plain but also be wonderfully alive with intricate detail. Tha colours are simply breathtaking!<br /><br />Our clients often ask us <span style="color: magenta;"><i><b>where the best place is to buy wallpaper</b></i></span>. From years of experience we recommend buying direct from the UK. To explain this further please see our main website page advising where we recommend to <a href="http://www.wowwallpaperhanging.com.au/buy-wallpaper-online/" target="_blank">buy wallpaper</a> and why. This will save you a lot of money and give you an enormous range to choose from. The wallpaper we recommend is available to buy from anywhere in Australia. Please also see our YouTube channel <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/WowWallpaperHanging">http://www.youtube.com/user/WowWallpaperHanging</a> where we will be adding videos to show different styles of wallpaper available to buy.<br />

As <a href="http://wowpaintinganddecorating.com.au/">Gold Coast Painters</a> we know when it comes to painting it's the trims that bring the whole job together and create the finished look that our clients are after.<br /><br />Imagine the exterior of a house with all the trims painted in the same colour as the house, how boring!!<br />The trims make the house so choosing the right accent colours for fascias, gutters, soffits etc is important. Don't forget that exterior paint has to be good quality to withstand the elements and that darker colours tend to fade quicker than lighter colours. Lighter colours don't absorb as much heat and light therefore last longer and need less maintenance.<br /><br />Interior trims are just as important to the finished look. Interior trims are always painted in enamel as it's much more hard wearing and looks better with its shiny gloss finish.<br /><br />Beautiful, glossy skirting boards, door frames, windows, cupboards or doors are the icing on the cake to transform a good paint job into something spectacular. I've seen it before, cutting corners by slapping on a bit of wall paint instead of enamel. For one it looks tacky and for two it scratches off.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">It's official, for looks and durability you can't beat a beautifully enameled trim.</span> <span style="font-family:arial;">For all your <a href="http://wowpaintinganddecorating.com.au/gold-coast-painting-services/">Gold Coast Painting</a> needs contact us at Wow Painting and Decorating.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161240808550528107.post-66496538539574607132010-05-02T17:37:00.000-07:002010-05-02T18:05:54.843-07:00Painting On The Gold Coast - Choosing The Best Shade Of White Paint<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge4qi2g7ggtH7cqzbmezPIajUGQs9jWvCAhuhN1vcbN8hPPcSDHklVCPGG-XakZ_ccvstoO_KOqebeSvG3NVgZ2qstxwOb47dIUhoNU_nTjAgWsOeaXftxJ-x4NF4bUpBFcIvDzZ7KSwE/s1600/Noosa+House.jpg"><img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge4qi2g7ggtH7cqzbmezPIajUGQs9jWvCAhuhN1vcbN8hPPcSDHklVCPGG-XakZ_ccvstoO_KOqebeSvG3NVgZ2qstxwOb47dIUhoNU_nTjAgWsOeaXftxJ-x4NF4bUpBFcIvDzZ7KSwE/s320/Noosa+House.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5466843716695483330" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">As mentioned before neutral colours and especially white have been the main colours of choice for decorating with <span style="font-weight: bold;">paint on the Gold Coast</span>. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">The reason is obvious, these paint colours are popular because they make a space seem larger and more open as well as being the perfect </span><span style="font-family:arial;">backdrop for furnishings and artwork. A feature wall will look great against the right white and timber against white can't be beaten. The other </span><span style="font-family:arial;">major draw card is that neutral colours won't date and can easily be made to look fresh by simply changing the colour of a feature wall or a new </span><span style="font-family:arial;">rug for example.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Wow Painting and Decorating only use the best quality paints and Dulux is the our number one choice. The most popular colours that we worked </span><span style="font-family:arial;">with through 2009 and up until now are of course the whites and neutrals being; Dulux Hog Bristle, Dulux Whisper White and Dulux Antique White </span><span style="font-family:arial;">USA.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Not all whites are the same so when people ask for white it's important to get the right white. Don't forget that white can be a cold sterile colour or </span><span style="font-family:arial;">warm and inviting. Have a look at the area to be painted and take note of how much natural light the room gets and at what time. Do you have big </span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">windows or a space that gets no natural light at all. All this determines the choice of white paint to use.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">It's best to use a white with more yellow tones in an area that has little natural light as this will create a warm feeling and reflect light more. If an </span><span style="font-family:arial;">area has artificial light such as fluorescents then that light will have more of a blue tone than yellow.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Most people lean towards the warmer whites in favour of the more crisp whites but if you have a lot of stainless steel and a minimalist look you'll </span><span style="font-family:arial;">want cleaner, cooler whites.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Once you have decided on the tone of white, warm or cool then choose two or three of those shades. Get some sample pots and apply at least </span><span style="font-family:arial;">two coats to a fair sized bit of cardboard and put them up during the day and at night under lights. You can move these samples around from </span><span style="font-family:arial;">room to room and against furniture to decide what you like best. At the end of the day it's up to you what you decide so go with your gut feeling.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Ceiling whites on the other hand should have no undertone therefore creating a neutral sky above which lifts the ceiling height. A ceiling white </span><span style="font-family:arial;">should be the whitest of whites.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">When it comes to<a href="http://wowpaintinganddecorating.com.au/choosing-interior-paint-colours/"> painting on the Gold Coast</a>, Wow Painting and Decorating can make things easy with our knowledge of paints and the right colours for your home.

With painting you never know where the next job will be located which makes it interesting. There certainly is never any boredom of working at the same place week in and week out. Wow Painting and Decorating have also painted in locations around Brisbane.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">While most of our work is predominantly on the Gold Coast we have also traveled to locations as far as Innisfail and Mackay in far north Qld. This was after the cyclones and severe flooding that occurred in those regions at the time. Most people cannot imagine the devastation that engulfs a whole city after such huge flooding. Unfortunately this week the same level of devastation has occured in Charleville, Roma and St George.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">It requires huge organisation and dedication on the part of tradesmen in all areas to rebuild cities after such disasters. It's a long painstaking journey to get people back on their feet and into their homes again. On the part of the tradesmen it's a massive commitment to be away from their families for very lengthy periods of time.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">My last stint of working in a disaster area was after the Mackay floods in 2008. I was away from home for 9 months. It's hard to describe the initial shock at seeing just how bad things are and realising how much work will be involved in getting houses livable again. The thing is someone has to do it but it does require huge effort and hard work around the clock, it's 7 days a week of go go go.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">We offer our sympathy to the latest victims of the flooding but know that through the efforts of all people throughout the community and the men and women that will be sent there to help rebuild the areas affected by the floods there will be light at the end of the tunnel.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">For a full list of our service areas please visit <a href="http://wowpaintinganddecorating.com.au/service-areas/">Wow Painting and Decorating - Service Areas Gold Coast</a></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161240808550528107.post-83246787393265578612010-02-15T19:48:00.000-08:002010-05-24T21:15:41.456-07:00Gold Coast Painters - Wow Painting and Decorating really create the "Wow Factor" with colour.<span style="font-family:arial;">We have found that most people like to follow the decorating trend that's in right now. Fortunately using paint and colour can create the up to the minute look in no time and it's more cost efficient compared to other forms of decorating.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">As <strong>Gold Coast painters and decorators</strong> we take our job seriously and love it when we come up with a great idea or colour scheme that the client might not have considered. At the moment the colour scheme most popular is neutrals. Neutrals look fresh and open up a space. What's best about this colour scheme is the wonderful effect accent colours can have on a neutral background.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">While neutral colours are big so are natural textures and fibers. These can be incorporated into the decorating in the form of cushions, rugs, pictures, curtains etc. It's great to then pull a colour out of this and add just a small amount of colour as a feature wall. It doesn't have to be a huge expanse of wall, sometimes just a small alcove or space will do the trick.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Wallpaper is so stunning at the moment with the latest colours and designs from Europe popping up in Australian homes. These designs can instantly change the whole feel of a room. Nothing adds luxury like wallpaper. Again just a feature wall is all that is needed while still keeping quite a neutral colour scheme. This look is very modern and contemporary.

There are many new developments aswell as many people renovating older homes. The style is very contemporary, using a lot of neutral tones and natural materials. Not only do painters and decorators apply paint as a way of protecting and sealing surfaces but also as a decorating style. This may be in the form of a feature wall, a stippled ceiling or wallpaper to name a few.<br /><br /><strong>Painters and decorators</strong> can also advise on colours and the most appropriate paint to use if a sopecial finish is required. Colour is so important when choosing a decorating style, it's the thing that creates a mood or atmosphere of a home. One feature wall of a special finish can look magic when used in the right colour and in the right light.<br /><br />Wallpaper is another decorating tool that is back in vogue once again. Don't think about the wallpapers of years gone by. Today's wallpapers are absolutely fabulous and when used in just the right alcove or on one particular wall can knock your socks off. It's so easy to create an individual style with all the colour and designs available these days.<br /><br />Of course to really get the full impact of a special finish or a beautiful wallpaper it has to be applied properly. If a professional isn't used for these special techniques it could end up looking a big mess and end up costing you twice as much. <strong>Wow Painting and Decorating, Gold Coast Painters and Decorators</strong> are experienced in all aspects of painting and applying special finishes.

It's amazing to think that wallpaper has made a comeback. We all tend to think of wallpaper as a ghastly decorating style from the 60's and 70's and let's face it. it was.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Today however wallpaper is anything but ghastly. <b>Gold Coast wallpaper</b> is being used in some of the most up market homes, businesses and hotels. It's a trend that is set to take off in a big way.Feature walls using paint and special finishes are making a big impact to stylise our homes. Wallpaper can do the same thing but even better because of the numerous designs available.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Every look, style, theme, colour, pattern and design is catered for. There are wallpapers that give an instant french provincial look, contemporary, tuscan or4 retro. In fact whtever the atmosphere you are trying to create, there will be the perfect wallpaper.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Wallpaper has always been huge in Europe and as we know the Europeans are reknowned for their style and elegance whether it is in fashion, decorating or even designing cars. Most of the wallpapers available these days are made from the finest quality paper and some even use natural fibres. The point is they are nothing like their outdated 70's cousins.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Wow Painting and Decorating can easily hang the wallpaper of your choice as we have years of experience. Wallpaper hanging is a definite skill and while some people may attempt painting it is not advised to attempt to hang wallpaper. Obviously the surface preparation has to be A1 but working quickly with the glue and lining the paper up perfectly are skills that take years to perfect.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Please see our main wallpaper website at <a href="http://www.wowwallpaperhanging.com.au/" target="_blank">Wow Wallpaper Hanging</a> where we service both the Gold Coast and Brisbane in wallpaper installation. </span><br />

We've seen painters come and go so we know what makes a successful business.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">We believe everyone wants a reliable and honest service. Nobody wants to be ripped off and most people appreciate honest advice when it comes to painting.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">If we think there is a cheaper way for our clients to get what they want out of their <strong>paint job</strong> we will advise them on that. Sometimes it might just be that spraying is the best option rather than brushing which will save the client in labour costs.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Whatever the case may be we will advise our clients every step of the way. If there is a better suited finish or colour that's where our many years of experience come in. Not only that but we strive to have the job done in a really well organised manner that will cut down on time while still delivering a perfectly finished paint job. No job is too big or too small for <strong>Wow Painting and Decorating.</strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">There's nothing better for us than to see a happy face on the client when the job has been completed. This is where we get our satisfaction and to be honest a lot of our referrals. A job well done speaks for itself. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><strong>Painting</strong> gives you the best renovating results for your money but only if done professionally. On the <strong>Gold Coast</strong> there are lots of modern contemporary homes with the latest colour schemes but also many older homes being renovated. No matter what the home may be we can assure you of our expertise in all the latest techniques, trends and products.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Using the best quality paints is crucial to a well done paint job. The right paint will last for years not only looking good but protecting the surface it is applied to. <strong>Exterior paints</strong> are usually more expensive but they need to be of the highest quality especially on the Gold Coast where our weather can be so harsh.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><strong><a href="http://wowpaintinganddecorating.com.au/about-us-gold-coast-painters/">Gold Coast Painters</a></strong> absolutely must be licensed. Wow Painting and Decorating are professional licensed painters ready to transform your home into something to say "WOW" about.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9161240808550528107.post-63180580340985417882010-01-02T21:43:00.000-08:002010-01-02T22:12:19.974-08:00Choosing A Gold Coast Painter<span style="font-family:arial;">At <strong>Wow Painting and Decorating</strong> we understand how important it is to get it right when choosing a <strong>Gold Coast Painter</strong>. For that matter when choosing any trade or service. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">For starters it's important to feel secure in the knowledge that your painting contractor will be professional, efficient and deliver a superb paint finish without leaving your home in a mess. On top of that you want a fair quote not some overpriced ridiculous fee.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">Professional painters are usually easy to pick. Firstly it's a must that they be licensed with the QBSA. Secondly the number of years the painter has been in business is a good indication of how professional he/she is.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">Efficiency is also very important. When hiring a Gold Coast painter you should have a written quote and a contract. Nobody wants an unprofessional team of painters on their property for weeks on end. Efficient painters arrive with all tools and materials ready and systematically attack the job in such an order to finish in the quickest possible time.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">The proof is in the pudding so the finished product says it all.

I am married and have six children altogether, 4 boys and 2 girls. My oldest son is married and has just finished his Electrician apprenticeship, my second oldest son is just about to start his Painting apprenticeship with me. My eldest daughter is happy in Building Material sales and my younger daughter is studying Natural Medicine. That leaves my two youngest sons, 14 and 11 years old who are still at school and not sure where their aspirations lie just yet.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">For myself, right from an early age I discovered that I was very good at building, creating and fixing things. It didn't matter whether it was knocking out walls to renovate a house, installing a kitchen, laying tiles, building pergolas, fixing the engines of cars and yes, painting, I seemed to have a knack for anything I laid my hands on.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">I was able to secure a Painting apprenticeship at a young age and from that time onwards have always been involved in the building industry.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">I quickly discovered that there is a lot more to painting than meets the eye.</span> <span style="font-family:Arial;">I could ramble on forever about different paint techniques and how this paint should be used for that and the preparation has to be done this way but I'd hate to bore you into a sleep induced state so I'll just say I learnt everything there is to know about painting.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">I like working for myself and knowing that I'm totally responsible for all jobs. I get to know the clients first hand and build a relationship of trust with them. It's important to me that people are comfortable with everything to do with their painting job, whether it's a small repaint or a million dollar waterfront mansion.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">There are a lot of decisions to be made when painting because most times the painter is the last of all the trades to come into a house and finish it off. It's us who pulls the whole job together with the colour on the wall and give the house it's final look. Our if it's a repaint it's the painters that give the house a fresh facelift.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">I love being able to consult with clients about colour. If a client has a colour in mind that's great but sometimes thay need a few suggestions here and there. I always know the best colours and whether to use full strength or half strength, I make sure I'm on top of all the latest trends and colours. There's always a new trend when it comes to painting whether it be colours, products or different decorative finishes.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">Another thing I'm big on with my business is reliability. I know for myself that reliable tradesman are as rare as hens' teeth. How many times have you waited for a tradesman to show up but he never does and to top it off there's not even a courtesy phone call. I don't do that to my clients. I'm reliable and I realise my clients are paying for a service, a service I pride myself on delivering to perfection.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">I like to post my prices on our website, that way people can get a rough idea on what their paint job will cost. This cuts out a lot of time for the client and myself so when I do give them a quote they should already have an idea anyway. This allows me to spend a bit more time discussing finishes and colours and answering any questions the client might have.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">I'm proud of Wow Painting and Decorating, we really do deliver the "Wow Factor". We are reliable and honest and nothing makes me happier than to see happy clients. After all if a client is happy with a job we usually find they will recommend us to others. Nothing speaks louder than a referral from a happy client.

Slap on a bit of paint and presto, but presto can easily turn into messo if you don't know what you're doing. It's true anyone can paint a house but if it's a million dollar finish you're after then you might be disappointed. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">Firstly the materials you choose make a huge difference. Cheap paints will give a cheap finish and won't last. Not only that, grubby marks just won't wipe off. It's best to go with the best quality paint you can afford. They have a top notch finish and are more resistant to wear and tear. Of course it's not just the paint but the choice of rollers and brushes. Cheap inferior brushes will leave brush strokes and possibly even paint hairs in the finish.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">Secondly the preparation is one of the most important steps to painting. If you cut corners with the prep it will definately show. All plastering, filling, sanding and gapping have to be done to perfection to get that mirror finish at the end. Using gloss paints is especially tricky. Gloss is usually used on frames and doors and is very unforgiving if not applied properly.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">Thirdly there's a lot of physical effort involved in painting. Loading a heavy roller with paint and rolling walls all day is equivalent to a gym workout for your arms. Then if it's a step class you're after then up and down ladders all day will give you that. Don't forget to cover any furnishings with drop sheets and be vigilent in cleaning up any paint spills and splatters.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;"><br />If all of that sounds too hard then <strong>Wow Painting and Decorating</strong> can take control of your paint job.

Our <strong>Gold Coast Painting</strong> services include interior and exterior painting of new and existing properties.<br />Interior painting is often thought to be an easy diy job but if it's a professional finish you're after then hiring an expert is best. Licensed painters are equipped with the best quality tools and materials. Surface preparation is crucial to the perfect finish. Glossing doors and frames is fiddly and if not done right will be very noticable. When repainting every nail hole, dent and scratch has to be filled in to perfection otherwise the finish won't be smooth. If it's a special finish such as a feature wall or suade that's required it's important to know what you're doing. Cutting in a differnt colour for a feature wall requires a steady hand.<br />Exterior painting is probably more time consuming and does require a lot of ladder climbing. There's usually more than one colour involved including the gutters and eaves. Also it might be a rendered texture or sand paint finish that's needed.<br />There are so many differnt finishes when painting and differnt method of applying that finsh.<br />Find out what </span><a href="http://wowpaintinganddecorating.com.au/gold-coast-painting-services/"><span style="font-family:arial;">Gold Coast Painting Services </span></a><span style="font-family:arial;">we offer.
