COMMITTING TO COLOURS....

It turns out that White Mist is the colour equivalent of Michael Gove: cold and utterly cheerless. (ho ho). And Grey Steel is actually BLUE. We haaaaaaa-aaa-te it.  So have spent all today driving ourselves mental about what colour to repaint it in.

I think we're settled - THINK - on Crown Petit Palais in Lait for the bulk of the hallway.  It's a warm, pale grey.  I guess you could call it beige ... BUT NOT TO MY FACE.

And then --- bold move --- F&B Cornforth White downstairs by the kitchen and upstairs on the landing.  We really like Cornforth White.  It's a good grey - strong in the shadown and light in the ... light.  It's also not too cold. 

We're sticking to Flake White in the living room, but we're going to go for --- another bold move as we've not got testers, we're just going for it.  We did the colour check thing in B&Q and the machine told us it would work with the headboard fabric so ...  Dulux Chalk Blush 2 & 4

I'm still not sure about the dining room but as it's full of crap at the moment, I don't think it's a pressing issue.  It might be on the grey scale, though ...
