To celebrate our stunning new advert ‘Walls Come to Life’ we have been running a fantastic competition that will see one lucky person claim a trip for two to New York City. We are now a few weeks into the contest and the prizes keep getting better as the big draw gets closer.

This week’s prize, which links with our Facebook site, is inspired by the illustrator Graham Carter’s underwater scene and the pink Octopus shown in the advert. Our competition features the chance to win a full makeover for a kid’s bedroom, you could even choose the colours used in the TV ad as part of the prize.

The children’s scene featured in the TV advert presents three fab colours from the Crown Paint collection, which sees the Octopus painted with the vibrant pink of Cheeky Wink® and tones of Soft Berry both from the Crown easyclean range, while the surrounding water is awash with the deep blue shade of Laguna Bay® from our Feature Wall range.

So, to be in with the chance to win big, simply log on to our Facebook site, click on the New York Competition Tab, click like and then enter the multiple choice question. Good Luck!

The long summer holiday is over already and autumn is just around the corner. As the nights draw in and family life reverts back to normal the juggling of full time jobs and school begins. Amidst all of this coming and going the last thing on your mind at this time of year is the upkeep of your home’s interior.

However, if you prepare for the changing of the season your home needn’t lose its shine and you can continue to entertain family and friends without worrying about everyday wear and tear.

Crown has a solution to these common problems in the form of easyclean matt emulsion with stainguard®. Tough, washable and super scrubbable, easyclean helps to combat knocks and accidents helping to prevent your walls from looking tired.

Available in a variety of colours, the easyclean range is as stylish as it is practical and features colours that can be combined to leave your home looking right on trend. Team Soft Berry® and Potato Cake® on walls and woodwork to create a muted contemporary look in your room.

The easyclean range also features fun and bright colours that look great in children’s rooms such as Bubble Bath® or the vibrant Orange Squash®.  These colours work really well together and as easyclean can be applied to wood and metal, you can also have fun brightening up their furniture safe in the knowledge that any future marks can simply be wiped away.

So, if you are keen to keep your home looking fresh and would like to feel confident about your walls being protected throughout the winter months, check out the full range on our website here and choose the colours that you love.
