We women sometimes come up with some brilliant ideas, we just have to keep reminding the men that we do.

Ok ladies & gentlemen we’re getting to the important stuff now colour choices. First up is the bathroom. Colour scheme is being based on the sink

.
I was thinking orange for the walls and everything else white. Shower wall & tray, toilet , skirting boards & door frame. Then pick out all the other colours with accessories.
This first colour has already been rejected by Bob.

I thought this was the closest to the sink colour. I know it’s very difficult on computers / tablets / phones as all screens are set differently so no one will be seeing exactly the same colour. Here’s the others I chose. But after seeing them next to each other. I have 3 very possible, 3 look to peach to me so they are out. I definitely don’t want a paler orange being mistaken for peach!

I like the first colour but then I like bold colours.

Sorbete de melon would be my choice if you're trying to pick out the orange of the sink, but as you know I'm rubbish at design. Personally I'd have highlighted the blue for a bathroom but that's because I'm not adventurous. I'm just trying to imagine waking up with an early morning hangover and being greeted with bright orange walls in the bathroom

No good asking me for colour choices. I'm boring so would probably have pale walls and pick out the skirting, door frame with a darker tone, that's where I'd be using the "orange" or the blue in the washbasin.

P would've banned any of the oranges. I'd have to resort to towels etc in the bright colours. How boring we are!
