There are many walls in my house painted magnolia, my FAVOURITE colour!... In fact, the skirting board and window sills and frames are also magnolia! You could say that I bought a magnolia house... Magnolia is NOT my favourite colour, especially when all the woodwork has been painted to match, or not as it were... If a house has to be painted one colour and one colour alone, I would much prefer white... But maybe that's just the graphic designer in me poking its head out...
Anyway, the kitchen is one of my magnolia rooms, and although I didn't want to paint the whole thing white, nor did I want to paint it all a bright colour either, I did want to inject some colour in there... So out came the test pots!
It was a tough descision... I originally wanted a bright zesty green, but couldn't find the colour I was after... So second best was either pink or blue. The darker blue was definitely out and it was a toss up between the other two. I eventually decided on the lighter blue, even though the idea of a bright pink kitchen was pretty cool...
So off I went to B&Q to purchase my blue paint. But wait a minute, what's this? Could it be? Yes it is! That bright zesty green I was after! Forget the blue, I'll be having me a pot of this please!...

| Yum! :) |
So the painting commenced, but first off I thought I better slap a coat of white over my test patches...

| Lovely!... |
And the result! A lovely
balla uaine running from the kitchen through to the utility room!
