  • Have decided to expand the scope of the work.

    Am now going for a full repaint of the hallway, as well as minor fixes in the bathroom (remove mirror from wall, repair stud wall, fix sink back to wall, put the taps the right way around!, re-paint the whole of the bathroom)... as basically this kitchen renovation has proved quite expensive and so I'll delay plans to renovate the bathroom for a couple of years, and instead will give it a lick of paint and correct the minor annoyances to give it a new lease of life.

    Of course... this means choosing colours.

    I'm thinking:

    The hall being a light hazy blue I'm pretty set on... the bathroom, I've no idea, just making this up as I go along but as there are a lot of greens and blues throughout the house I'm thinking a red tone... and a dusky light red or powdery pink might be nice.

  • We've just gone with blush pink in part of our kitchen which is nicely understated

  • For the hallway I'd try to find a paint more durable than Dulux. Ask you painter what the most durable brand is he works with then try and go with that.
