The bedroom and kitchen colours are...?

Two different Australian bush blends. That wasn't deliberate, but that's how the palettes worked out.

The kitchen was grey/pale yellow and is now cream/eucalypt/cork. The benchtop is theoretically granite laminate, but looks more like cork. Plus a feature mosaic strip of various natural rocks.

The bedroom was pink/purple/off white. The off white carpet remains, but the purple walls are now Pilbara orange/red behind the bed, and a very subtle pale spinifex grey/green, both in Suede FX paint, so lots of hues and shades. Pink curtains replaced with a Moroccan weave in similar ochre red/gold/greens. Plus olive green swags with gold dangly trim on the reddish wall.

I should catch up with my photos. I'm good at in-progress ones, but I take a while to do the Better Homes and Gardens photo shoot.

Those colours sound fantastic together! I'd love to see some photos of it if you are willing to share... Doof and I are looking at painting, so inspiration from other people would be greatly appreciated :)
