We have many many many ideas, but they have to get distilled down in to something that will work. We normally don't have this much problem deciding what to do with a room. It is the amount of wood wall we are finding difficult. Initially we thought we would paint it white or remove it, but we have grown to like it.
Now we are trying to come up with a 'Modern 60s chalet chic' concept that incorporates it
We will probably paint the pine panelling between the windows here as it is just too much along with the nicer wood and potentially some wood furniture. The TV will stay here but needs to be lowered. There will be unit under it.
The sofa (clic-clac) will remain, but with a different cover on it. The colour keeps changing in our minds at the moment. Clearly the wall behind needs painting at least. It is textured in a way I think we could maybe get used to but Doug hates (not wall paper or wood chip - it is a plaster finish looks like)
Here we think a taller unit instead of this short one. The snowboard thingy is there until we agree whether to throw it out (me) or use it or sell it or something (Doug)
We have a round table (see lower down) to go here instead of the long one and the unit there will go. We plan on a bigger mirror where the mirror is and a bigger picture where our little picture is at the moment.
This is the new table, bargain of 'leboncoin' (which is like ebay but you have to go and fetch things). I want to paint the legs cream/white but we are not 100% sure that is a good idea yet. It is a 60s imitation of an old french style.
We will paint various other things we are hoping to get on leboncoin at bargain prices but cannot settle on the colour yet - along with the colours for curtains and the sofa.
Current thinking is furniture painted white/cream and a blue/green/teal and some red accents like cushions and the curtains also blue/green/teal and the sofa chocolate (or maybe blue/green/teal) - but we shall see... There are some practicalities to consider as it will be rented out (hopefully a lot!) and the dog has black hair which gets on everything.
We are currently still sleeping on the floor in the bedroom. Beds should arrive soon!
