Great job - your bedroom is stunning btw, and love your daughters bedroom suite My karma ran over your dogma Re: Painting over feature walls 62Jun 20, 2008 5:30 pm Michelle See the white door…or what ever colour it is, against the green wall????? This is what I keep saying to people about feature walls, where doors open onto a feature walls like above, it ruins the whole effect of a feature wall! Now you see the new wall same colour as the door, looks much better! Glad to hear I did the right thing **Phoenix** Nice pillows/cushions on your bed btw...... Thanks, Will look so much better when I have a bed! House-To-Be Love the lamp DD has, I was eyeing one of them up on Tuesday at Pop Princess (my girls favourite shop). Are you pleased with it all? Yes the lamp is beautiful - I am now pleased with it all haywgl Such a big difference, so much more light in the home and the spaces will be so much easier to accesorise!
