Re: Fairy Blues New Home - Front landscaping pics pg34 669Jul 27, 2010 7:57 pm Thanks Rowena, I have flaunted that pot around enough now, I think! Re: Fairy Blues New Home - Front landscaping pics pg34 670Jul 28, 2010 9:42 am I am really impressed by everything! I have just read your entire build!!! WOW!!! I really love your home theatre colour, I know it was probably written somewhere but i could not find it, i didnt see it anywhere! could you pls let me know what colour it is and who does it )taubmans or dulux?) i think it looks fantastic! thank you Re: Fairy Blues New Home - Front landscaping pics pg34 671Jul 28, 2010 5:20 pm Thanks emma, I can't believe you read the whole thing!! The theatre room is painted in a Solver colour called Southern Vales. It looks terrible in the brochure (kind of a dirty purple) but much better on the wall. We bought sample pots and had the painter paint large sections on the walls from which we chose the colour. Re: Fairy Blues New Home - Front landscaping pics pg34 672Jul 28, 2010 5:53 pm thanks we have picked Taubman's canyon black but now i think it is going to be too flat or boring (the rest of our house is charcoal and a splash of purple) and i dont know if i should change it!!!! I wanted purple but couldnt find one i liked (it has to be taubmans your house looks great and I enjoyed reading your post Re: Fairy Blues New Home - Front landscaping pics pg34 673Jul 28, 2010 6:07 pm Hi fairyblue, Yours was the first thread I read on here when I discovered H1!!

I wanted purple but couldnt find one i liked (it has to be taubmans your house looks great and I enjoyed reading your post What a shame! Have you bought any sample pots of the taubmans purples? As I said our colour on the chart looks different to the end result. It might be worth trying a few out. Canyon black sounds nice too, neutral, would make accessorising (sp) easier. Good luck brb_654 Hi fairyblue, Yours was the first thread I read on here when I discovered H1!! I made a comment on your 1000th post Your facade is just beautiful and I'm lovin that red pot!!

I've hidden her in here from TM, I got sick of the drooling!! I recently finished my house and after landscaping, have begun to plan a fence. To be honest its been a bit of an afterthought so I'm after some much needed advice.
