Funky colours

Hello again. We have been mad busy decorating. We have done one bedroom at the rear of the house, although I still need to paint the furniture, buy a bigger bed etc. we have been trying to be very thorough when painting - filling in all the holes/gaps along skirting etc; painting ceilings and glossing all the woodwork. My thinking is that if we do it really well this time, any future decorating will be much easier.
We have now moved in to my youngest's bedroom at the front. She wanted black (!) but I have talked her round to a very dark grey on one wall only. It looks amazing. I just need to do some neatening of the edges (my brush was too big for the cutting in) and gloss the woodwork. When I've done, I'll post photos.
There is so much to do, that it's very easy to become rather overwhelmed, but we are trying to bite it off in chunks.

As I mentioned in my last post, there are some pretty wacky colours in this house....

The downstairs shower room

Inside the music room cupboard 

The office 

Another of the bedrooms 

More pink 

Decals on one of the bedroom walls. 

My youngest's bedroom. That is brick effect wallpaper. Well it was, until I painted over it yesterday! 

Even the front door - a lovely stable door from my wish list - is painted baby pink! I have bought a delicious soft green for that, but have yet to get round to painting it. It's either too sunny or showers...

We are almost through 10 litres of white emulsion already. Goodness knows how much more we'll use to get the house looking how I want it to.....

In reply to some of the questions from the last post :- Jet is absolutely loving it here. He is like the proverbial pig in clover. We haven't needed to actually walk him yet as he can lolop around the plot with gay abandon. He's still recovering from his op and still limps a bit, but we will get there. The cats.... Our female cat, Freya, has settled very well and is managing the cat flap (a new concept to them). She is quite grave and going outside. Oscar, the black male cat, who disgraced himself so often before we moved is still regularly leaving us 'gifts' in the house. He knows how to get in and out of the cat flap, but is too nervous to do so. We put him out of the  front door and he dashes straight round the back, through the flap and  back upstairs to his spot in the sun. I guess patience is needed with him. 

More soon x
