We live in the big blue house - internal walls are all blue, feature tiles on the floor are blue, carpet is blue, teamed up with apricot/terrracotta coloured door jambs, architraves and vertical blinds.

For about two years our Missy Megan has been telling us her room is meant to be pink. Every time she finds a "blowy" in the garden she blows it and makes a wish for a pink room. Every time she blows out candles she wishes for a pink room.
This week her wish came true.

Ray has taken this school holidays off work to start the internal painting of the house. This is the first of 5 bedrooms. We would like to replace Missy Megan's vertical blind with a white venetian. But our windows are not "standard" so it needs to be made to order. So that can until all the rooms are done so we can ask for a better deal by ordering all the blinds in various colours together.
We bought this house 6 years ago. It's about time we put our own stamp on it!
What have you done to make your place your own, rented or otherwise?

What a gorgeous colour! What is it called?
Thanks so much! The light pink (under the window & where the doll house is) is Pink Gin by Dulux & the darker walls are Pink Parakeet by Dulux. Boy oh boy our house is going to be multi coloured by the time Ray finishes!
a gorgeous pink colour. You are a goo mum to let her have a pink room in a blue house!!
With 2 sons first & being a tomboy myself, this blue house was fate. Blue was my favourite colour for YEARS. But the combination of a pink baby and driving a pink & white Tupperware car (selling lots of pink plastic) "girlified" me somewhat! Now I love all things that are pink. Hence the pink background on my blog! I did play around with blue but came back to pink. hehe!!
