Bring a can of food into your local Resene owned ColorShop and you can swap it for a Resene testpot (60-80ml).
Resene will then donate all the food brought in to The Salvation Army local foodbanks and other community foodbanks.
By adding a little more colour to your life you can also help those in need. When you donate a can of food you'll save on your testpot purchase (save up to $5.80 on an 80ml testpot) while also helping provide disadvantaged Kiwis with food parcels when they need them most.

3. Stop the heat coming inside - Invest in window shades or external coverings like plants.
4. Invest in insulation - Insulation works at keeping us warm in winter and cool in summer so it’s a worthwhile investment.
5. Switch to cotton - Opt for cotton bed linen so you don’t overheat at night.
6. Cook outside - Warmer evenings make it an ideal time to fire up the BBQ.
7. Dehumidify your home - Air is much easier to cool if it’s not humid and you’ll feel more comfortable too.
8. Change your lightbulbs - Incandescent lightbulbs produce a lot of heat, try switching to energy-saving bulbs. Not only will you save on energy costs, but they’ll help keep your home cooler too.

On the face of it she has an idyllic spot to raise her 3-year-old son, graze stock and watch her commercial flower business flourish – all reasons she chose to live in the country.
