The transformation of our new veranda is now coming to an end. I have finally gotten to the most enjoyable step in the transformation of this room, which is the decoration.<\/span><\/p>\n So far, I like everything and I am really happy with of all my choices. I am very grateful to my husband and my son for helping me complete all my projects, because without them, I would have had to give up some ideas.<\/span><\/p>\n To end it all on a high note, I wanted to give a second life to a chair of which I had a very specific model in mind. So I started looking one, and it was at my daughter’s that I found it, luck!!!<\/span><\/p>\n So far, all of the shades chosen; F\u00e9licit\u00e9 (custom colour), Nature, Zen and Cotton Ball evoke peace and serenity.<\/span><\/p>\n For the transformation of my famous chair, my husband suggested that I add a funky touch, and it was the very beautiful colour Pamplemousse by Colorantic that he chose. His choice really surprised me and I immediately approved it since this shade melded wonderfully to all the others.<\/span><\/p>\n There was a little something missing on one of the walls and I chose to revamp one of our very old drawers in our kitchen as a shelf.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”61864,61866,61862″ fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” width=”57%” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”List of Used Products” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px||3px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Divers produits Colorantic” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/colorantic.com\/en\/our-products\/” button_text=”Colorantic Products” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” button_bg_color=”#ef6079″ button_border_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Steps” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|auto||auto|false|false” custom_padding=”21px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Explications du processus” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Spray the varnish cleaner and remover<\/a> on all surfaces.
