Hi Ginny, What a great room! Artwork always adds personality, ambience and interest to a room. Please see attached some images of your room with some original artwork by Australian artist all of which are available on hatch-d. Artwork depends on your personality and the size and lighting in your room. I'd be very happy to help you find the right pieces for your room at a great price. Just email me through the website and we can start an obligation free conversation. Best, Jacqui

Colours like in the previous pics, tan leather cushions, white euros, a fab textured throw even a fur throw, black also would look dramatic with your charcoal bedding even mustard would add a stylish look , white, mustard, Black and Tan would all go beautifully with charcoal.

I’m not a professional painter but live in a old wood house with wood floors (inc bathroom), wooden windows and weatherboards so I’m comfortable with wood and water existing together. I don’t think you need your 4 steps. I would refinish the base including the legs (particularly the bottom of the legs)with a good clear wood sealer maybe something from the marine section - take advice from the paint shop as to which brand. I wouldn’t paint the top of that piece I don’t think the style lends itself to a two tone finish. I would use the wood sealer on the top as well and teamed with a white basin it will look quite smart. If you do paint the top any exterior paint would do the job, exterior paints hold up to rain and hail so should survive a bathroom. Make sure you seal well around the base of the basin. And check the finished height of your project. You don’t want it tools to use.

The colours , design and overall execution are really good , and better tghan most 'professionals' who post on here , but again thats a matter of taste ( and to be fair , I'm sure a lot would rubbish my amateur efforts ) . An intelligent use of the existing brick , render , and modern lines and design . A bit too much grey in the kitchen for my taste , but definitely livable ! Three of my pet peeves though -- before photos with no lighting , after with every light on . -- messy before photos , prestine after ones . -- no colour or even owners personality yet showing . There is a cool apricotty orange chair in one of the pictures , and and orange jug in the kitchen , and see how much better those rooms look for it ? I know everyone is different , but personally , I think the primary tones suit orange accents , and I imagine the Wow that would be added with those bar stools in orange instead of white , and then do 3 of the dining chairs in the white , and 3 in a light orange ( or if that is considered too much , go white chairs with light orange cushions that can be removed if you don't like 'em ) -- a bit unexpected , but no too over the top IMO , and all ties in with the brick , the white , the charcoal , the grey , the timber .
