2004 Nissan Pulsar Q, 1.8L automatic hatchback, NZ new and just under 140,000 kms.
Love this car but am deciding to sell as it is now surplus to us and no longer needed.

Just got a new WOF in the last month along with it getting serviced. Have owned this car for just over a year and have gotten it serviced regularly. It has new rear brake pads, new headlight and 2 tyres new last year.

Is in excellent driving condition, runs really well and is good on gas. Only issues are cosmetic damage: mostly scrapes to front bumper and driver's side rims and general wear and tear and small areas around the car. No rust damage. Few stains on the seats but no rips and otherwise clean.

Good radio and will include bluetooth fm transmitter that allows you to easily play wirelessly from phone.

Am definitely open for you to come and view in person and open to some negotiation on price.

Have had some trouble with neighborly messaging and not getting messages so feel free to text 0275117399 to begin with or if it appears I'm not replying.

DIY - Snap crackle pot

Give some plain store-bought pots a fresh new look using Resene Crackle Effect. These small, plain herb pots were from The Warehouse. I used Resene Crackle Effect to give them a shabby chic look with on-trend paint colours.

Give some plain store-bought pots a fresh new look using Resene Crackle Effect. These small, plain herb pots were from The Warehouse. I used Resene Crackle Effect to give them a shabby chic look with on-trend paint colours.


You will need
• Test pot brushes
• Plants of your choice (succulents and cacti look great with these paint colours!)
• Resene Smooth Surface Sealer Resene Crackle Effect
• Resene test pots


Instructions
Step 1: Start of by removing any price stickers and sticky residue. Next, prepare your pots for painting by applying one coat of Resene Smooth Surface Sealer all over. I painted my pots inside and out using a test pot brush. Leave to dry.


Step 2: Once your base coat has dried, paint each pot in a different colour. You will need to apply two coats, waiting for dry time in between. I chose the following colours for my pots: Resene Florentine Pink, Resene Wild West, Resene Moccaccino and Resene Wafer.


Step 3: Next, apply one coat of Resene Crackle Effect to the top third of the outside of each pot. I was after quite a strong crackle effect, so I applied quite a thick coat. You could also achieve this by applying two coats. Leave to dry completely. Repeat for all pots.


Step 4: Once the Crackle Effect is dry, apply one coat of your chosen white shade over the top of the Crackle Effect; I chose Resene Half Pot Pourri. You will need to work fast applying your paint, as the Crackle Effect will start to show quickly! Repeat for all pots. Leave to dry and let the effect work its magic. Once dry, add your favourite small plants and find a sunny spot for your cute new pots! You might like to try this effect on larger pots too.
