Pink recommendations please
Hi,
I would like to paint the alcove in our dining room a dusky pink, I have samples of FB Skimming Stone (bottom) and Valspars An Unfound Door but they look a bit purple to my eye. There is light from east and west facing windows.
Anyone have any experience with these colours or recommendations for a dusky pink please.? I’d considered dead salmon also but don’t think it would work with our kitchen units.
The room is part of an open plan kitchen lounge diner and so I’d like the space to flow.

Comments (5)Thanks Minnie, really love that Portland stone.. I don't think I can source that here in Ireland , but will have a chat with them in the paint shop, and see if they can match something as close as, for sampling. Thank you again...See Morestairs recommendation please
Comments (2)Hi sorry I have been away for a while. Our house is being built from scratch and overall a contemporary look I would say. However The stairs will have carpet but not sure about anything else like banister etc. Would live steel, just not the traditional wood but it seems very expensive....See MorePink paint shades for toddler’s room please...
Comments (4)I had this dilemma a couple of years ago for my daughters room... I wanted dusky pink - bit like in the picture. I couldn’t find anything, so I’m the end took a curtain to b&q to colour match a piece of pattern. To be honest it turned out quite a bold purpley pink, not dusky as I hoped. I’m used to it now and it isn’t a baby colour... good luck finding one...See MoreKitchen lighting recommendations please
Comments (15)Hi Ellie. Right ignore the IP rating, apparently a requirement for bathrooms only, I thought the same would be sensible in some areas in the kitchen but apparently not! if you like the anglepoise I'd probably put some mid century style pendants with them. I would personally go for glass to emit as much light as possible If you're not having any downlights and a sputnik style over the table which will disperse light over the length of the table. It also doesn't visually fill the space too much which may be good with the drop in ceiling height? Do you have any cabinet handles at all btw? I don't know how you feel about having the light hung low over the table (typically a min of 76cm above the table). I've added a pic of the black version of the brass one as it's hung even lower the 76cm. If you don't like this idea there are a number of semi-flush ones which would work. I've also added the last pic as I guess layout is similar. Sadly the wall lights are no longer sold where they but will persist in trying to find similar if you like this look!...See More

last yearI agree they do look more purple than pink. I’ve not used it, but F&B Calamine looks rather lovely. I quite like the ochre colour you currently have. Here‘s Calamine
