Hi everyone,
After much debate about the interior colour scheme I have managed to convince the family that painting the stained timber beadboard panels white is the best way to go.…

Thanks karry,
I don't suppose anyone knows what Nomadic Ivory or Antique Ivory is in the Haymes range? I am using Haymes for a few others rooms and would prefer…

Thanks karry,
Do you have a photo of Antique Ivory on a wall by any chance? I can't seem to find it on the Taubmans site. Do you know the colour…

Hi everyone,
I have been going over and over which neutral I wish to use inside and for the life of me cannot choose. I am sure I'm not the first…

Hi Judie,
Try the US Ebay. I found one although I'm not sure how much you are willing to spend. They aren't particularly cheap. You would get it in time for…

You're so welcome! I look forward to the end result.

Oh well if it's removable then great! Other than that perhaps a large framed mirror or a print or even a row of prints above the bed to give the…

I have to agreen with d@n on the necessity of a warmer shade with the terracotta roof. The white trims will work with a more warm neutral. Have you considered…

I like the wall colour. It works nicely with your white furniture and the drapes go well. I used white, beige and black in my living room in a classic…

My decor is a classical/french chic style. I purchased nearly all of my furniture and other decor on Ebay or Gumtree and from antique stores and markets. If you are…

To be honest I have only seen my neighbour on the other side twice! I'm sure she's as happy with that as I am. We all like our privacy. A…

Thank you both for your advice. I think I will speak to the local police and have the situation put on file. I quickly typed up everything said after each…
