Boo

Just curious as to what colour everyone's bedroom walls are ? (I'm not a stalker :(). It always intrigues me as to what colours people decide to place together - or what their parents shove together lol.

Mine was originally full blue when we moved here, then it went bluey-green and magnolia (urgh God I hate that colour) and now I have a dark purple feature wall ("Mulberry Burst") and a.. hm I can't quite describe the colour... it's called "Natural Hessian" on 3 other walls.

Like this;

But the Purple looks... 'stronger' irl and the other colour on there is 'soft stone' not natural hessian v little diff.

Finally finished painting I see ;)

I still don't think I can describe my walls without it sounding worse than it is...
One wall is the browny purpley colour and the other three are the creamy colour that imo looks tinted with green

Yeah it was like that when I moved in no way would I choose them colours

If it looks more green irl, I must ask why you haven't chucked a can of paint over it LMAO. I cannot imagine green and brown walls together, it would look o.O.

Dw my mum has an obsession with blue and I hate it :I. Blue bedroom she has, blue bathroom, did have a blue kitchen, blue living room and my room had blue before :'(. If it's not blue it's "magnolia" which I loathe. And gl on the streets ;)

I love blue but I dont think I could live in a room of it although the blue in the kitchen is like a darkish greeny blue.. green again maybe I see green more hehe idk but the kitchen is better than the weird cream colour. Idk why people always paint white and cream and stuff its silly and plain and boring

White is very plain and boring :( It only looks good on ceilings tbh. I also don't like the labelling "cream", it's near enough white so I usually say white xD. Oh apparently, the best colour to have in the kitchen is blue because it deters you away from food slightly more than other colours - how on earth they "discover" (cough *come up*) with these facts God knows.

I used to love green but don't think green walls could ever work with anything.

Mhm we have fifty two shades of grey in the lounge and it looks too showhomey like the white. Well yellow is meant to help sell a home so if you're selling paint your entire house yellow lmao idk how that works or how the blue works... why do you want to stop people eating food though isnt that what a kitchen is for or is that for the larger kids ;)
green only works in those jungle themed kids rooms ;)

Larger kids ;) LOL. No love a kitchen is for gaining food, dining room is for eating it (i.e my bedroom :() ;) ;).

LOL at 50 shades of grey. Bet you do have that in there tbh ;). My mum's trying to get the lounge redone so it's a white at the top and then my natural hessian (but lighter) at the bottom. Gonna look so bland :(. And really about yellow selling a house? I've always found yellow to be a horrendous colour and avoid it on almost everything.

Purple wall made my room seem so much darker last night ngl. And yes, jungle themed rooms woo.

Techinically my house is open plan so the kitchen is also the same room as dining room and it's also blue ;) and dont lie you eat under your pillow ;)
Not in the lounge that is in my room tyvm ;) hessian? what is that ****? she should paint it yellow! Yeah apparently I can't remember where I heard it from but yellow is definitely the colour if you want to sell I think it makes you feel warm and fuzzy and homely idk.
Maybe you had the light on last night ;)

No, all orange is bad cry :(. Idk what a very dark orange would look like tbh? Green is great alone if it's quite dark - but then an entire room of green is icky.

Omg our living room used to be dark red and white, I loved it tbh. MUCH BETTER THAN THE BLUE SHE REPLACED IT WITH URGH :(
