blot Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Wondered if anyone else thinks there should be a 'wood effect' eglu that would blend in more in a cottage garden? Or has anyone tried repainting the eglu to achieve this? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blot Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 Don't think a plastic covering would look too good- maybe painting would be the answer. Has anyone ever painted theirs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ygerna Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Well, i like the fact that they stand out, but, then I am a bit like that Not sure it would work, or even if they still manufacture it, but, my brother once revamped his kitchen with something called 'paint N grain' (or something like that) it made a woodeffect on the cupboards. I've never used it so can only recall him using it, not sure it would work on plastic, but, a google might offer you some clues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 A few people have pimped their eglsu with acrylic paints. Lesley has done it a few times, so she'd be the best person to ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
