Hello my lovelies. OK so dh is off to Japan on Saturday which means, saddo that I am, it's painting time!
So, when you walk into the house you face the stair wall. That part is only about 7 feet wide, with dark wood staircase going up to the right. walk along about 6 feet and there's a couple of steps down to a square hall area with 4 doors off.
The first part of the hall is reasonably light as there's a full length window next to the solid wood door, and a square window next to the big window.
At the moment it's all painted in F&B Print room yellow but the stair wall gets really grubby so I'm thinkin gof painting it a darker colour but a bit worried about it being too dark. I'd keep the other walls a warmish cream, I think.
Upstairs there's a square landing with 4 doors off, a couple of steps up then a long gallery type landing with a squared off bit at the end (room for an armchair & table). There are 3 square windows along the long landing.
The carpet is a sort of medium green, like a sage green. Skirtings are white but the back of the door and the window frames are all dark wood (unfortunatley & dh would objct if I painted the dark wood white).
I'll keep the curtains which are all cream.
Does anyone have any ideas, please?
