I really love that colour and had a bedroom years ago in it (or similar) with white skirtings. I found it to be a really calming colour.

Ta Eli...got some sample pots on the go............it would be easier to do the whole house in Dulux Heifer (which is my main colour - an old colour I picked from dulux book) but then it wouldn't be as fun..

The bedrooms I want to personalise a bit more..............and as I not worried about resale issues I think I am just going to go for it...

Wait till I make a thread about Mr 5's room.......that one is challenging as I wanted it to be grey, white, red & black.....Do u know how many greys are out there ....... Jeez .....but I'll save that for another thread I think..

Update:

Just found a spare shadow box in the cupboard so needed a creative outlet so put this one together to go with others....

The pattern is made out of paint chips I had lying about cut to shapes and layered and then I added a few small shapes I punched out with shape punch also in paint chips...

The wall colour I ended up selecting was called Chandos but now I think I am going for Snowdonia half for both boys rooms. The colour takes on blue tones paired with blue accessories and grey tones paired with black so it could be a winner.
