Painting

Well I have managed to changed the overwhelming Grannie Pink colour in the hall to Violet white, a very soft colour with definite Art Nouveaux appeal, there is something vaguely Victorian about this colour but a little bit shabby chic as well (though goodness knows I hate that phrase).  So unintentionally,    the look of the flat is deviating a bit yet again, into a sort of decadent, Edwardian, Laudanum addicts doss house....just by changing a colour...which is a bit amusing because I have a poster to frame of a Moulin Rouge -esque Absinthe advertisement which will look the bees knees on the walls.


In other news, I have painted the mirror frame in the Metallic Millionaire Gold, it sounds awfully vulgar I know, but in moderation the look can be pleasant and not too jazzy. As you can see, it is not too garish.


You can see the new floor boards in the mirror reflection and beneath my dust sheet. I also have a fantastic pearled colour which I am dying to use, but as I don't have anything to use it on yet, I will just have to be patient.
