So you know I bought a single 'click deco' brand dolly light switch a while back and found it to be pretty poor quality so it was returned. Ended up with these: http://www.forbesandlomax.com/the-unlacquered-brass-range.html Really good quality and they have lovely finishes too. I quite like their antique bronze range too as it contrasts nicely with chrome/nickel finishes without clashing. If you'd really like everything to match then take a look at the Jim Lawrence range. They're not the cheapest but offer both light switches and door furniture in a large selection of finishes. They also do the narrow style of light switches which I think looks really elegant in older houses. https://www.jim-lawrence.co.uk/door-window/door-handles-door-knobs/bromley-handle-with-bristol-keyhole-backplate-in-510201bw?returnurl=%2fdoor-window%2fdoor-handles-door-knobs%2f%3fcount%3d36 https://www.jim-lawrence.co.uk/1-gang-dolly-architrave-switch-in-chrome-with-3279chniz https://www.jim-lawrence.co.uk/2-gang-black-dolly-switch-bevelled-plate/

What colour to paint shelves/trim against wallpaper
Q
Comments (48)
Thank you for all the comments! We decided against green partly as I think it would be too much of a contrast - I don’t want the room to be even more fussy - and partly because we have dark blue sofas, and I’m not a fan of blue and green. The pink is a good rich tone and matches the pink in the wallpaper well. I’ve tried to pick out three key colours for the room - pink, blue and white (or orange), plus some highlight colours - yellow, teal and orange (or white). The thinking behind this is that at the top and bottom of the walls the main colours in the wallpaper are pink, orange and white (which also makes me unsure that green would work at skirting level, while the pink might be less drastic). We already have some pink in the room (lamps, cushions) and it works. So there is a kind of method to my madness! I love the idea of floor-length curtains and was originally planning on that but they can’t be hung around the window seat. Thank you for all the help and advice - I wish I’d come on here years ago as this room has been a real headache! We love the wallpaper though and are determined to make it work. The blinds have already been ordered in the fabric shown!!!!!! - I’ll report back with a photo. If it’s a disaster I guess I can make a lot of cushions... x

Should I paint mahogany skirting and door trims white

Completely agree with Sonia. It’s such a dated and dark colour. You need to paint it all white. By doing this you’ll then find a lot more colours in emulsion to go on the wall that blend better.

What colour would you use to replace the red trim?

The brick red stands out, and not in a good way - the red makes your house look yellow. Also, I have never seen trim done like that before (along the bottom of the house and at the corners??). I mean this kindly, but that does not look good. In addition, there is no need to carry the trim color to the fence, and the bench, and the retaining wall....it's way too much, in any color. I would remove that trim by painting it the same cream as the house. This would be much fresher than keeping that trim, in any color. For an accent color, consider painting just the fascia. It would be subtle and classic. With cream, you could do a navy, a white, a gray. Not sure about green - I just don't have experience with it. But you have several colors going on without the accent color, so there is already plenty to look at. No need to paint everything from the lawn to the lane the same color as the trim, or the same color as the house itself. Just put the trim color in one spot (aside from the house) - like the top of the fence/retaining wall OR the strip on the bottom of the fence that is red. Not both! Also, no need to paint the main part of the fence the same color as the house. For example, let's say you choose navy for an accent color, so the fascia and top of the fence are navy. The rest of the fence can be a complementary color - tan, gray, brown would all look good with navy and cream. I hope you'll post photos after you're finished! Very pretty house
