yes I like those two as well michelle. bedspread will probably be a lighter colour, i was thinking that it would have gold on it. my mother brought back a piece of fabric from kazakstan that is red with gold thread on it. it is a real red so i think it will go with those two colours, i am leaning towards the enamelled jewel. will take pic of fabric.

That’s why they are spotty. Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: Moroccan Makeover 25Oct 22, 2008 10:54 am here is the fabric that mum got me.
the thick gold border is only at one end. the rest looks like the right hand side. and it is redder than the pic.

Maybe? Love the colours. Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: Moroccan Makeover 27Oct 22, 2008 11:35 am thats what i thought. there is a window that is in the centre of the wall that the bed will go on. about the width of a queen bed and 600 high. maybe i should hang it like a curtain behind the bed??
do you think that will look ok with the enamelled jewel paint? at least I am not using a real green then it would look like christmas. Maleena Hardy Curiouser & Curiouser Vintage-Handmade-Interior & Colour Consultancy http://www.curiouserandcuriouser.com.au Re: Moroccan Makeover 28Oct 22, 2008 11:44 am Yes…..hang it as a curtain!!!
Use big chunky timber rods with chunky end mounts. I think the fabric and the enamelled jewel will be stunning together. Watch the amount of sun that gets on the fabric though, it might fade, and that would be a shame. You can’t just pop back to K-Mart for another one. Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: Moroccan Makeover 29Oct 22, 2008 12:15 pm i will just leave the ugly verticals behind the fabric. thanks Maleena Hardy Curiouser & Curiouser Vintage-Handmade-Interior & Colour Consultancy http://www.curiouserandcuriouser.com.au Re: Moroccan Makeover 30Oct 31, 2008 4:55 pm ok so i have got sample pots of dulux enamelled jewel and taubmans red heart and taubmans argos (off white).
the enamelled jewel is tooooooo blue for me, nothing like the colour on the website. red heart is perfect, it is so close to the red on my fabric wall hanging that it will look great with the gold thread going through it. we will do the wall behind our bed red and the rest will be argos. just need to wait til we pull up the carpet next weekend and get new carpet on the 14th nov. cant wait, it is getting so close now. i have found a white coverlet for the bed , thought with all the other dark colours it will brighten up the bedroom and if by some chance the kids get in there and mess it up i can use bleach. have got my eye on many different cushions and pillows too. i just have to plant that money tree. Maleena Hardy Curiouser & Curiouser Vintage-Handmade-Interior & Colour Consultancy http://www.curiouserandcuriouser.com.au Re: Moroccan Makeover 31Nov 01, 2008 5:41 pm Sounds good Maleena……I guess it want be too far away and I’ll being doing another house of mine.
So we can share our progress with each other! I can’t wait to see your finished product, when is the carpet going down? Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: Moroccan Makeover 32Nov 01, 2008 6:35 pm the carpet will be going down on the 14th November so 13 more sleeps. yay Maleena Hardy Curiouser & Curiouser Vintage-Handmade-Interior & Colour Consultancy http://www.curiouserandcuriouser.com.au Re: Moroccan Makeover 33Nov 01, 2008 6:37 pm That’s my birthday …..I’ll be thinking of you!
Nice carpet! Is it going through the whole house or just your bedroom? Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: Moroccan Makeover 34Nov 02, 2008 2:52 pm my birthday is the 9th.
the carpet is just going in our bedroom, cant afford to put it anywhere else. i think we will put something in the other bedrooms when the boys are a bit older and less likely to destroy it. we will tile the rest of the house.
