We have been living in our house for about 8 years now, and I have lived with a lot of the décor because we had young children and both work full-time so not much time to redecorate.
Gradually now I am emerging from the mists of tiredness, and looking round at all the tired-looking rooms and chipped paintwork.
So I have bought paint. And sanded.
For example, our hall has orange terracotta tiles on the floor, (which we love), white walls, and then v. bright blue trim around the doorways and on random ugly pipes.
I went to a "posh" paint shop and asked for advice, and was told (and agreed) that those features did not need picking out in blue, and to go for off-white.
But now DH is protesting and saying that the hall looks pretty like that and he doesn't want all-white/grey/cream.
I don't know where we go from here.
Do you and your DH always agree on decorating decisions? Or do you just go ahead and do it anyway?
