Resene/Your Home and Garden Colour Home Awards - June 2003 winner
This sophisticated bedroom has won Jules Pate $500 worth of Resene vouchers as the first of our monthly Resene Colour Home Award winners.

To Jules Pate's dismay, mould began appearing on the papered walls just months after she moved into her home, but she decided to do more than just fix the underlying problem. Jules decided her room deserved a sophisticated colour scheme that would complement her existing red curtains and blue carpet. For her feature wall she chose Resene Metallic Digital Blue and brushed it on in a cross-hatched motion to add texture. The remaining walls were painted in Resene Mischka and Jules is delighted with its changing look in different light levels. By painting the skirtings, scotias and architraves in the same colour as each wall, she has given a sense of space to the room. For a final touch of glamour, Resene Digital Blue was brushed over the drawers, also spruced up with new handles and feet.
