We have reviewed our search facility and decided to make it a far better experience for you to use, whereas before all you were given was a jumble of posts that was hard to understand, now you are presented with an aesthetically pleasing search result.
Now when you search for a word you a given the search term you used, you are told how many search results have been found and how many are being displayed. You are also given the title and date when the post was published, tags to similar posts and the category it was posted in.
All posts are separated to make them easier to read by their own box and we have also added a graphic to each post found.
We hope the new improvements make searching propertydecorating.co.uk blog easier, why not give it a go, happy searching!

We have improved our 404 page, this is the error page you see when there has been an server error such as a post or page has moved or you followed a link from somewhere that is wrong, maybe from an external site.
Now, instead of a dull looking page with not much helpful information, you will see a new graphic, some helpful pointers and tips and hopefully good advice to aid you to find what you are looking for.

Colour trends for 2009
Reading the Dulux Trade ‘Trade Xpress’ newsletter this week their is an interesting article about the paint colour trends for 2009. The trends are soft and subtle.
Trade Xpress said:
For 2009, the team has predicted a move towards colours that are soft and subtle, but which still have very strong links to the built environment, our natural landscape and natural craft materials. The influence of green can clearly be seen, and as colour of the year 2009
the consultants have selected a shade of cool jade: 10GG51/125.
