In search of colour

[Coffeesnob11]

I am just moving into a doer upper. It will just be me and my dc4. I was bought up in a house that was magnolia carpets and walls and thus I love colour and as I only have to please myself I am looking for Inspiration.
Can you share your favourites wallpapers, paints, furniture or even pics of your own rooms or others you think for the colourful bill. My dm will probably insist on wearing sunglasses when visiting but colour makes me happy so I am determined this will not be a dull home.

Hopeful bump

Hi OP.

I like colour too. Luckily for me, so did the previous owners of my flat (only moved in this year). I wouldn't have chosen the blue for the living room myself, but it's grown on me, and I'm happy to keep it for now.

I've changed the colour of my bedroom and my hall, but they're not so bright.

I love colour too. I just found the # on Instagram #colorfulhome. There's lots of inspiration for you.

I love this colour.

Thank you, so many amazing rooms on there. How am I ever going to choose which colours to use!

Two different colours @Coffeesnob11

I realised that maybe wasn't obvious after I posted! Kitchen is a teal shade. Living room is the blue.

We have a yellow kitchen and dark blue snug leading off it. I was wary about using colour but I love it!

I'm a colour fiend. There's loads of people on Insta to inspire you. Sophie Robinson is colour obsessed. My latest purchase:

Have duck egg walls in the lounge with teal accents. Apparently it's a relaxing colour scheme . Kitchen aqua with cream units. Hall pigeon bluey grey pale walls, white karndean herringbone floors. Bedroom still blooming awful mushroom walls. So depressing

And some inspo here, I love the idea that every colour goes together

One of my top tips is to look at colours that work together in nature and emulate them (e.g. look at peacock feathers and accessorise with colours from that palette).

I also recommend looking at opposites on the colour wheel to find colours that make each other 'pop'. E.g. this blue room with an orange exposed brick wall.

Ooo exciting! Sooo much on Instagram op. Follow some house renovation types!

I always adored Amy Sedalia home, so gorgeously quirky and colourful.

These are all great so many amazing colours and combinations. I can't wait to get started.

Check out Lust home for fabulously colourful wallpapers, my child’s room is done in their jungle is massive one and it makes me smile everytime I go in.
