I am about to give this company a go this year!
Don’t worry Dulux, you’ll still be there with me.

RESENE….has some of the richest paint colours for feature walls I’ve seen in a while.

Their website is very informative, the link below should keep all you budding colour enthusiasts busy for a while…….

Me too, these two samples appeal to me so far:

The look i want for the master bedroom is sort of/little bit like this(in colours)....
But i want it to look a little more opulant....if you get me???? (Nothing on the wall over the bed for me though-personally, i think it detracts from the feature of the wallpaper)

Is there one that grabs your attention in their range Michelle????

P!!!! Very nice taste you have!!!!

I haven’t looked at their rang yet….but will do soon.

I don’t think we have a stockist in my town….but hey…that’s the perks of being a decorator….I go straight the source. :wink:

Easy done……just use your imagination!

P now doubt can pull this off, but to others wanting to save money…..you don’t have to have the most expensive of anything. Look at designer clothes, they always have reproductions, this is also said for anything you can buy.

Look around, take your time. Have a set design in mind, and don’t waver from it.

You can pull off the look, with minimal expense!

Yeah, just explain that to the other half when i keep buying things for a house we don't HAVE YET!!!!! :lol:

P….Its called vision, or visualisation!!

My ex, scorpion, builder, builds homes million dollars and up, creative!

My cousin, scorpion, does the same as me only full commercial only…..creative!

Ask hubby where HIS creativeness has gone.

I think he handed the reigns onto me, when we met, the Libran...who's supposed to be indecisive???? Uh hem, i don't think so.

I have plenty of vision / visualisation, he just doesn't want to see it....until we have a house :lol:

I'm already designing the gardens complete with features....they haven't even poured the slab yet!!!!!!! :lol:

Michelle · Jan 03, 2008 9:15 pm

My daughter is a Libran…..and SO NOT indecisive!!!!!

She knows her mind very well!

You go girl!

Has anyone tried the colour personality test on the Resene website????

It said i'm primarily a Winter personality then a Summer selection as a second personality....

Hmmm..... but i still don't like the colours it's suggesting....all except one...it's called Barrista....

vanderlay · Jan 04, 2008 11:41 am

Apparently Mixed seasons is my primary colour personality then so is Spring!!!!! :shock:

Winter is my secondary colour personality.... I think I confused it with my poor taste! :lol:

I didnt like many of the suggested colours either :lol:

Michelle · Jan 04, 2008 6:23 pm

this was me....

Mixed seasons is your primary colour personality
Summer is your primary colour personality.

Autumn is your secondary colour personality.

Pretty much what I thought.

Yak_Chat · Jan 05, 2008 6:04 pm

Yep and I confused it totally - Maybe that coliur pallette did it

Go figure this lot out.

Spring is your primary colour personality.

Mixed seasons is your secondary colour personality

Winter is your secondary colour personality.

Autumn is your secondary colour personality.

Ahh - I can count four lines

But spring is my choice anyway.
