I will succeed!!!
Hey peeps,
Ok...so I have a very distinct 'style' when it comes to how I like to decorate my homes. I'd describe it as clean and simple meets Laura Ashley hints. I always colour match things too - the same colour but different shades.
The thing is, recently the estate agent said she loved the way we'd done our flat (she took the viewings around) and said it was really stylish but not what she expected from a 26 year old. And then at my house a friend said 'wow, it's so grown up'. Jim always laughs at me that whenever we do a room it looks like it's fallen from a catalogue (because it's so coordinated).
So...I am worried now! I think my OCD nature is taking over! LOL!
We're just in the middle of doing the bedrooms at the house. In our master room I've gone for a duck-egg blue that is more towards a soft teal. The other walls are pale ivory/cream and the furniture is black stained wood (sounds awful but it's nice!).
I've found dark teal bedding which I loooooooove and the curtains are similar to the wall (had similar scheme in the flat). But I want to inject some random colour clash into the room now to make it less 'cataloguey'.
I was thinking of a hot pink-reddy colour? What do you think? I always have lots of cushion thingies on the bed so thought of adding a few in the other colour, and then maybe a couple of photoframes against the black furniture.
I keep trying to find the right shade of pinky-red but am struggling. Any other suggestions? Green is out - the OH banned too much green from the house because my flat was very green orinetated lol xxxx
