What colour is Egyptian Linen? Do you mean Dulux Egyptian Cotton? If you're using the same colour above and below the dado rail, paint it to match.

Hi - I wouldn't paint the fireplace or the mantel - particularly if it is the original, the fire surround tiling looks original possibly I can't tell from the pick. I would remove the picture rail completely, then I would build white cupboard doors and box in your book shelves then build a matching pair of door cupboards and and mount on the right handside of the chimney breast - wall mount your TV and satellite box etc on a tilting cantilever bracket with a shelf either above or below to store all your DVD's xbox games etc.. The doors are easy to make from MDF or tongue and groove, paint them white ( or cream and they will hide and safely store all your bits and pieces.) Choose hinges that you like to set it off. Then when you look at your fire place your eye will be drawn to it as a focal point, cosy in winter, lovely flower vase or plants when not in use, and by disguising any clutter and raising the eye level your room will look bigger too! - let us know what you do and post an updated pick !

Never thought about painting the frame black so that could work. I used to have a black door but it showed up any marks too easily (worse than white!) and also, it's a ugly dated door so I don't want to highlight it really. Can't afford a new one but will cover the glass with etched film which will look better than the current glass. I was going to hack them all out and re putty new pieces in but it will just take too long and I have to much to do in the house, ha ha.

Bronze Mirror will look very classy and will make the room feel more spacious. My no 1 in almost every kitchen I design. (Jo)

Choices choices- its a real tough one. I would LOVE to do one whole colour but my partner draws the line there, he says it will look like a corridor. I really like picture 2 of yours Ki and the top colour in the 2nd one of yours Hampstead looks real nice (black?). I find it hard to tear myself away from dark blues and we have had a mid grey (City Break I think by Crown) in our last house. Im just torn. How about Off Black by Farrow and Ball- will that be too much? Would you keep skirting and dado rail white or paint them the dark colour too?
