Give your radiator a fresh look with a lick of paint

Is your radiator looking a little shabby but you don't have the money to splash out on a new one? How about updating it with a lick of paint?
We've found some luscious paints at Farrow & Ball that will give your radiator the pick me up it needs without a hefty price tag.
You could go for a soft cream, like this Old White No.4 (from £19 for 750ml for Full Gloss/Estate Eggshell, pictured), or how about making a statement with something like this Rectory Red No.217 (from £21, for 750ml Dead Flat/Full Gloss)?
