Anyway, am really loving your grey pebble walls and think a double strength grey pebble splash back would be lovely. I like lots of different tones rather than assorted colours. Didn't quite achieve that with our colours though!!!! hi nina! and welcome, even if it is by accident your post made me laugh and get a bit jealous. i love the idea of a roomba but dont think i will be allowed one after spending so much on the hide a hose. Im loving the grey pebble walls too, it was a bit of a gamble coz there isn’t a paint card so I was just going off photos on the net but i think it looks good and just what i wanted. although i do love tash's tranquil retreat. My first thought when I saw downstairs painted was that a double strength splashback would have looked really nice, but id looked in the big dulux colour book at mitre 10 and the next colours along from grey pebble seemed to get too browny for me. I hope the red looks good. Onewheel The house is looking beautiful! Love the paint colours you have chosen and the red splash back will look fabulous! Hope all the tradies get their jobs done to the schedule with no hold ups. So exciting Thanks onewheel, I hope so too, about the splashback and the tradies! seriously cant believe she'll be ours in 2 weeks TashnStu77 Wow, where did a red splashback some from Em? It will look great. Hey tash, a red splashback has been on and off the cards for about 6 months I reckon. On Monday I thought I was going to choose a bluey grey splashback but started playing around in paint with pictures of our furniture and pendants and, while I really like blue, we don’t have anything blue, everything is grey or brown. This photo was the clincher for me! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Ribbon Em.Russ its all looking amazing! Great choice on the splashback and the paint looks great too. Thanks ribbon. Still a bit nervous about the red splashback, hopefully it go in soon. 1rocky with your theatre room how big is it, just love the idea of the timber step up. also how big is the step up wondering if it will work in our theatre room. house is looking fantastic love the colors thanks rocky, the theatre is 4m x 5m. we were supposed to build the step ourselves after handover but asked the builder if he had someone who could do it for us. No problems. I love my builder!

The most practical colour. For your Splashback, it's so small I wouldn't put red or any bright colour, you want your focus on the window. Me, because its small so won't cost too much, I would use the small stone on your benchtops on the Splashback. That way it will blend in and you focus on the window.

No movement on site yet as of the weekend. Hoping to see some earthworks… 3 2160 |
