I know it's not a colour everyone will like but it's very us. Plus it's only painted so if when we sell the house the new people don't like it they can quickly and easily paint it something they prefer. It feels really good to have a colour that is so different to the beige coloured rental properties we've been living in for years.
I have also been able to get a bit of knitting done. I've been neglecting my Tully cardigan a bit because of being in a sock mood but I have got a bit of knitting done. I chose to do the puffy sleeve option rather than straight sleeves so at the moment I'm doing lots of increases
I've also turned the heel on my second sock. The fish lips kiss heel is so easy to work, I'm going to use it for Mr Soaring Sheep's socks too :)
Today I'm going to enjoy having Mr Soaring Sheep at home and hopefully go for a walk, potter around the garden and make the most of the sunshine. Have a good week everyone :)
I love the wall color - the mirror looks great with it. I think your socks go along with it as well!
ReplyDeletethank you :) I hadn't noticed the socks co-ordinating before but yes they do rather lol. Clearly I like a certain set of colours
DeleteHmm, did that work? Just tried to leave a comment but it's vanished!
ReplyDeleteNo, evidently not! Ah well, I think the wall colour is a great choice. Thank you for the comment on my blog - I don't think it would take that long to get there from you, as it's only just off the A1. There is also a really nice pub at Harby on the Lincolnshire side of the cycle route.
ReplyDeleteOoo thanks for the pub recommendation, definitely going to have to check the route out over the Summer to meet up with in-laws there. Thanks for commenting on my blog, sorry it was being a bit of a pain!

DeleteThat is a terrific teal. Paint what you like. You're the one living in that space. Great progress on these knits.
ReplyDeleteIt's actually more of a green than it's come out on camera. I'm loving it :)
DeleteGorgeous color!
ReplyDeletethank you :)
DeleteThat colour is amazing!! I cannot wait to get my own house <3
ReplyDeleteThank you :) It's hard isn't it, we were very lucky to be in the right place at the right time to get this one. I hope you get your own house soon
DeleteI love that color. And I so admire people who dare to paint their walls deep colors. Even though I've owned houses for years, I tend to go with white! My daughter once painted her room Pepto Bismol pink. It's my room now and it took three coats to cover with white. But I'm glad I let her have her color; she really enjoyed it -- just like you are enjoying yours!
ReplyDeleteI grew up in a house full of bright colours like this so I'm used to it I think. I like white walls too though, it can look so clean and peaceful when it's done right.
Deletegorgeous paint color and I wish I had the personality to do that in my home. We are painting this year before the wedding and hopefully I'll love what I chose (or he'll have to repaint) I love your sweater and your socks :)
ReplyDeleteAw thank you :) Enjoy your decorating, it's fun giving a room a new look, would love to see photos when you're finished
DeleteWow I love that colour, especially with those pops of the bright pink lampshade and that stunning red mirror frame! I am soooooo looking forward to one day not living in beige rented properties!
ReplyDeleteDx
Thank you :) Yeah I'm not a fan of beige walls either lol. The green is looking lovely with the Christmas decorations around, very festive lol
