Guest Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) I love my new lamp from Ikea We're decorating the living room so I splurged a bit at Ikea the other day. We're starting painting the room on Monday and the furniture comes then too but I've plugged the new lamp in already http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=2411127&l=6b9f08b115&id=568396756 http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=2411126&l=c54405eaf4&id=568396756 http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/10130459 bought this one for the ceiling... http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/nav.jsp?isSearch=true&isYmal=true&fh_search=5014838074534 Edited May 1, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 That's all going to look lovely . Love the lamp (is it just me or is it slightly egg-shaped ?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfrock Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 We have the ceiling lights, same as you. Had them for about a year now ... only took me 4 and a half years to find something that I really liked, but that also was short enough for Andy not to bang his head on! They are in our lounge, which is painted a raspberry sorbet colour. Our bedroom is a deep aubergine and our kitchen is 'sun dried tomato'. You might have gathered that I love colour! (or maybe fruit and veg re-reading my descriptions ). The hall is the only neutral room in the house, as being in a bungalow all the rooms feed off it individually. I love the table lamp that you have as well, and can't belief how cheap it was . I only wish we lived nearer to an ikea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 this is where we are so far, only 1 and 1/2 walls done and the furniture assembled. The sofa had loads of bits missing and it has 2 left arms!!! you can't tell from the pic but it will need replacing anyway, it's coming together and I LOVE it! Probably not everyone's taste but I don't care Can't wait for the artwork to go back on the walls http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=2425705&l=f034636685&id=568396756 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 the decorating of the front room is now finished thank heavens. Scuse the untidiness but I couldn't wait to show you, do you think it needs more colour? http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=106577&id=568396756&l=443f95526c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becka Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 That looks fab! I've always wanted to paint one wall a different colour from the rest but have chickened out because I've always worried about getting the meeting point tidy. Your joining walls look very tidy, was it difficult? Becka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 That looks lovely, Poet I love blue and sandy browns, I think it is a great colour combination, and those cushions look like woven ribbons You can never have too much colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 thanks guys, very kind of you My favourite bit is the ceiling lamp, the superlambanana and the Beatles canvas. I keep seeing these DIY progs that tell you to be brave with colour so I thought "what the heck!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackrocksrock Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Really looking good - my daughter has the poang chairs in beige leather/leather look and they were so comfy and rock as well if they are the same ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
