And I am getting nowhere fast. I have our decorator arriving in 2 weeks to paint interiors of our newly purchased victorian London house, but i canNOT get further than the floor :(
The living room is South East facing with very large windows, and stripped pine floors - I want to paint the floorboards Railings (F&B), the floorboards carry on into the hallway, and we have wooden stairs in good condition, so I am thinking of painting a runner up the stairs (also in railings) But I cannot decide on the living room & hallway walls... I love Elephant's breath & Dove tail, but (and I don't want to offend anyone) I think sludgey colours look a bit old hat at the moment. Plus 50% of my good mate's have elephant's breath somewhere in their homes. I love the slight purplish undertones though. And I am not mad keen on cold greys.
I know this all sounds a bit rambling, but I wondered if anyone could throw out some ideas for our walls to go with railings wooden floors. We have some art and beautiful mirrors to go on the walls, but I want a really beautiful, perhaps a little unexpected background...
asking for the impossible. ?
