A pink kind of project


To complement our gorgeous new wallpaper and stylish fabric that is on a lampshade I decided to embark on giving a piece of furniture in our living room a new lease on life. And to do that I purchased the brightest pink paint I could find. Of course Luke was delighted with my masculine choice however being as supportive as he is, he took me to the paint shop and said go for it! Stay tuned for progress pictures... Kellie xx

    Oh I love that shade of pink Kellie, matches your fabric so beautifully! We had our Olivia's walls painted a similar colour in our last house in Sydney. Can't wait to see the end results:) ~ Tina x
