Re: magnolia, most of the house is caked in the stuff. I was hoping for backup in a move to get something different splashed on. My room's staying in it's retro colouring though

ok .. so what's your favourite colour?

yellow, specifically a sort of golden barley yellow. BTW this is a great thread, nice one loveleelady!

when i clear all the excess out of it i'm going to turn my room into a studio


i've got room plans and everything

i know who would have thought my litle ramblings about decorating would lead to this! wowee.. ok so barley yellow... ok what about painting 3 walls barley yellow and papering one with a nice modern paper (that matches)?? thats if theres 4 walls obviously this can be done in other ratios too

Hope you don't mind me crashing your thread Loveleelady..but just thought I would show you the handy work of my 18 year old daughter..and quite proud of her I am too..(even if I do admit to dreading what she would do with the spare bedroom) but a few days later she turned a small box room into a walk-in-wardrobe..and yes the sex in the city movie as a lot to answer to

eda.. i found you this brilliant website called wallpaperdirect - you choose wallpaper - then the colour - yellow - and you get loads and loads of choices!

sounds good, I'd quite like a bit of a meadow theme going on as I love meadows. Wow this has woken me up! What colour for the ceiling?

oh Susie.. you must be so proud of her thats absoloutely class..how nice to have a walk in wardrobe.. she defo has the creativity for diy! i wish i had one like that... good idea we can post our stuff on here

Yep that wallpaper site is very good

umm eda i would say as the ceiling isn't the feature.. its the papered wall (always pick your best wall for this) then just keep the ceiling neutral ie your old enemy Mr Magnolia or a simple cream if you can't bear the mag

walk in wardrobes are so nice...

sadly i only have room for a normal one

do you have any other pictures of it susie?

I'll get a picture of my walk in bathroom if you like

Not to sure my daughter will be happy with me plastering her mug all over this thread but only other pic I have is this one of her posing, this is the other side of the room
