Resene - Flat testpot
Try out your colour without having to lift a paintbrush. A new Resene Testpatch is just like a Resene Testpot, except the painting is done for you. Simply peel off the back of the Resene Testpatch, attach it to the area you plan to paint and view it at different times of the day and night to check your colour concept works under different lighting. Then peel it off and attach it onto other parts of the painting project. The new Resene Testpatch is initially available in the top 20 Resene colours. Each Resene Testpatch consists of Environmental Choice approved Resene Lumbersider waterborne satin screenprinted on sustainable repositionable self-adhesive stock packaged with a colour information brochure printed on sustainable paper stocks, all housed within a plastic bag containing 50% recycled content. The new Resene Testpatch is designed for busy consumers who like the idea of a Resene testpot but don't want to fuss with a testpot and brush.

Night shades of boot black, burnt charcoal and moonbeam silver are appearing on bedroom walls and elsewhere. Drama Queen from the Vision Glamour collection, in black suede and patent leather effect, brings mood and shine to walls after dark, and during the day. Check out -www.visionwalls.co.nz-.

Hemp is harvested within 100 days of planting and provides twice the yield of cotton per hectare. It is the strongest of all natural fibres and will outlast other natural fabrics by many years.
