A Rainbow of Colours!

Mike and I went out to the block this morning... and what a lovely day for it *sarcasm*.... rain, rain, and then a bit more rain! At least we don't have anymore flooding problems up at the block, so we should be grateful for that!

I have been a bit worried about the colour of the paints for the feature walls in most of the rooms, and on arriving at the house this morning, I am quite happy with all the paint colours in the rooms, except for Lauren's room.... the shocking pink, has taken on more of an orange tone, so I am NOT very happy about that :( I am pretty sure, it is not even the same colour as the sample colours, so I am thinking that someone got it wrong, when they mixed the paint for the painter :( I will take a sample and check it out on Monday though, as the painters will still be there on Monday.

So here we go.......

Our favourite room, the Formal Lounge, this was one of the colours, I wasn't convinced that I had chosen the right colour, but on seeing it up on the wall, and it extending out into the rolling hills, I have chosen the right colour! *phew* So here it is......

Britt's room's feature wall colour is looking good...

and so is Cameron's....

Lauren's room, looks this orangey pink....
and should look more like the pink in this room..... from the Resene website... (and as you can see, there is a HUGE difference in the colours) :(

The spare room (hopefully oneday will be a nursery, but we call it the guest room for now) is a nice bright sunny yellow colour, called Smiles!...

I am also really happy with the colour in our bedroom, I also thought that might be too dark, but its come up looking really nice and will go beautifully with the curtains we have picked out...

This is the hallway from our ensuite looking back to the master bedroom....

The Bathroom is looking good with a lick of paint in it! and the bottom of the shower has been prepared for tiling and I am getting closer and closer to using my spa bath!!! :D

The Butler's Pantry is also a lot lighter and brighter with the walls painted!

And also the main living area is looking great also...


Handover is down for September 1st, so we have only 25 more sleeps until we get the keys!! YIPPEEEE!!!!!!! The countdown is on!!!!! :D
