To decorate or not to decorate....

Today I am surrounded by paint colours from white to off white to antique white to soft white....the list goes on and I am still only on white!
My task is to help decorate a childs room.
Excitement is building but not about the wall colour as it currently has a soft liquorice feature wall with pale blue on the other surrounds which I do like but I thought a freshen up would be good!

It has driven me to check out other sites and bedroom makeovers..
Here are two ways to decorate the same room with different hues

What a great contrast for a simple look with a WOW factor...
Umm what about a girls room...

And version number 2..

Or for a bit more

You will notice I am a bit biased towards the red (my favourite colour) for either boys or girls!
Decorating doesnt have to be expensive or difficult. If you have your main furniture and just want to change the wall colours this can be done in a couple of days. Look for sale items for shelving and add some prints or block letters for effect. Curtains can be replaced with blinds and the job is done!

So now back to my pick of white, off white, antique white.......
