Stonewalled
Resene Stonewall on all four bedroom wallsWithin three months of moving in and with colour selections firmly fixed in their minds, the Karam's had painted every room except the elusive master bedroom with Antoinette painting the walls and David assisting with the ceiling work.

Three years later, inspiration finally came for the master bedroom. Using three cushions bought from Spotlight a year ago as a starting point, the criteria for the paint colour was that it needed to be deep, warm and complement the colour of the cushions. Most of all the room needed to be elegant and appeal equally to both occupants, immediately ruling out frills or flowers.

Resene Stonewall was initially planned as the feature wall but somehow ended up becoming the main wall colour - they love it!

The walls were finished with a square stop to the ceiling, so to ensure a straight, sharp finish a soft tape was run along the ceiling. This also prevented any dark paint accidentally getting onto the white ceiling.

A light, airy and spacious room with two very big windows, the Resene Stonewall on all the walls works just right and is not at all overpowering.

The makeover has been a fun family project as Antoinette did most of the painting, David made the headboard and Antoinette's Mum made the bedspreads and curtains... and all have sat back and admired the way it has all come together.
