Paint It Orange and raise money for Arthritis New Zealand

30 Oct 2024

Give your home an optimistic feeling with a splash of orange, in the same way the Resene Paint it Orange campaign aims to brighten up the day of those suffering from arthritis.

This month, for every orange-coloured Resene 60 mL testpot sold, Resene will donate $1 to Arthritis New Zealand. Arthritis New Zealand provides support to New Zealand children and adults suffering from a range of types of arthritis and also funds research aiming to improve the lives of those suffering from the condition.

Here is a little inspiration and some orange hues we know you’ll love to try:

Like the impact of a bold front door, but keen to try something different? How about using a bright orange such as Resene Hyperactive? Weatherboards in Resene Merino, deck in Resene Woodsman Natural, plant pot in Resene Kaitoke Green, bench in Resene All Black, stripes of zebra doormat painted in Resene Hyperactive and Resene All Black. Plant and doormat from Mitre 10, light from Lighting Plus.

Adding pops of orange into a space can immediately elevate your design.

Create a toasty warm dining room with walls painted in Resene Twisted Sister (back) and Resene Half Spanish White. The sideboard is painted in Resene Swiss Caramel, chair in Resene Moccasin, light in Resene Spanish White and short round vase in Resene Thumbs Up.
