Step 1
Make sure you properly clean and wash down the floor. Vacuum up any dirt and remove any dirt.
Step 2
Using floor paint, cover the floor in one flat colour. I'm using a dark grey!
Step 3
Use a pencil, ruler and tape measure to mark out your pattern. I'm doing a fairly simple geometric design, so I marked out a grid of squares 30cm x 30cm first.
Step 4
I then went back over and added diagonal lines to finish off the geometric pattern.
Step 5
You can then begin to paint the pattern with your second colour of choice. I'm using a very light grey, that looks almost white.
Step 6
You may need to add a second coat of the lighter colour, but then you're done! You can enjoy your nice new patterned floor.
Step 7
Simple and beautiful!
