JudieL's Profile

#3 is from Bold & Noble: http://boldandnoble.com/collections/type-maps. I have the Australian one and get lots of comments on it.

I'd go for white wainscoting and a colour like Benjamin Moore Santorini Blue for the walls. It's a slightly greyed-off pale blue and looks fabulous with black & white.

I want a Tranby mirror. It was discontinued in Australia 2 years ago, but I notice you could still get it in the US up to a couple of months ago. I keep checking ebay here, but no luck so far.

From my research, it is exclusive to the House of Fraser (www.houseoffraser.co.uk). Might be worth emailing them.

It looks like stock standard cheap pine trim. It's not even done properly (the corners should be mitred). I say paint it.

I would use something like this:

You can put a small bowl on top for keys and mail. Maybe even add a skinny vase for flowers. There's a drawer to put mitts and hats in. The bottom shelf could hold shoes. Add a tall mirror on the wall behind it and you're done.

foxsyd - there's a Typo at Macquarie Centre. Just hop on the train from Chatswood.

The red flower with the light green edges is a coleus. There are many different varieties, so you may want to take a picture with you to the nursery if you want that particular one.

Firstly, I would use one of those grout colouring pens and make the grout white again. I don't think they're terribly expensive.

I would paint the walls (if allowed) a mid-graphite colour. Not too close to black. The medicine cabinet I would paint white.

Shower curtain - do you like vinyl or fabric? For vinyl, I would suggest one of these: http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=117044&RN=382 , http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=110264&RN=382. Fabric: http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=120594&RN=10 , http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=111886&RN=10.

A nice graphite bathmat, some graphite or black accessories (soap dispenser, cup) and a few succulents on the cistern (someone else came up with that). I also really like the idea of hiding the shower pipe with bamboo.
