Re: The end of the washing machine ..

White walls can certainly brighten a place up, but it is best
used in a larger place than yours. It would be too much better
if you had darker walls as it makes your place look bigger,
believe it or not. Not having little ones touch everything in my
house, I don't have to clean the walls often at all anymore.
I did have a very small walk in pantry when we lived in Sydney,
it was very narrow and ended in a point, like a V shape. It was
very dark and cramped though. If I had a larger kitchen here I
would have put one in here when we redid the kitchen, but there
was no room, sadly. I finished redoing my pantry yesterday, I
hope this way works better. It's an odd shape with a fair bit of
wasted space where it goes into a deep corner, and those spaces
are harder to use, so I try to put the thing we use the most to
the front on part and the the less used items in the corner
part.

I decided on White walls because they make the place look BIGGER
.... in my mind anyway !
Naturally, white is an obvious choice for making a room feel
bigger. It's no secret that light colours make a room look
larger, especially if the space is bathed in natural light.
I find I don't store as much food stuff as we did in a bigger
house ! :) But my smaller pantry is quite full up :)

I think it depends on where you look as I found this;
Dark colors can make a small room look larger, but so can light
colors. Pinks, blues, greens and grays are all good choices for
small rooms, but so are off-whites. Think about wrapping the
whole space in color for a dramatic, saturated effect. And avoid
the feature wall.28 Feb 2023
I guess we are both right as I chose a grey for my living room
and it has made it look bigger and brighter. I too get a lot of
natural light in there and I believe that is what makes the main
difference [emoji4]
It doesn't take much to fill a pantry really.

I am sure your fridge and pantry are full if the kids aren't
there [emoji4] Used to be the same at my place when the
grandkids were small, the full pantry and fridge would only last
until the next visit [emoji1]

I hope the weather has been good for them and they had a lovely
break away. It's nice to have friends that allow them to have a
free break away [emoji4]

They got back about 3pm this arvo and Greta was down here before
Jack to go on my computer !!! NO computer over the weekend but
they did have a TV :) They even went paddling in the sea but it
was cold and Greta managed to fall in a sand hole in the water
and ' got wet and had to swim out ' ...... ' She paddled ' out
said Jack :) Have not seen any photos yet but they had a lovely
time :)

I'll bet Greta must have been freezing!!!!! Good for her to
'swim' out and save herself, Jack is being the supercilious big
brother there [emoji1] I'm glad they had a good time and I hope
Bonnie puts some photos up of their time away. What was the
holiday house like?
