This is only really possible by using tester pots of paint and actual fabric swatches.<\/p>\n<p>To see how a colour really looks in a room it needs to be viewed in different lighting conditions, and in different places around the room &#8211; the effect of light makes a big difference to the appearance of the paint. Rather than make a mess of several walls, this can be done by painting a piece of white card and holding it against the wall in different places.<\/p>\n<p>A recent trend to paint woodwork, picture frames and bedroom furniture in a darker shade of the wall paint can look very attractive. It can also harmonise pieces of furniture which might otherwise look out of place, such as storage units.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bulgerwicks.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/bedroom2.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-901 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bulgerwicks.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/bedroom2.png\" alt=\"bedroom2\" width=\"350\" height=\"163\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bulgerwicks.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/bedroom2.png 350w, https:\/\/www.bulgerwicks.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/bedroom2-300x140.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our job, once you&#8217;ve made your colour decisions, is to put them into effect on the walls and woodwork. At this point, attention to detail is what can make a good design really work, or simply look half-baked. Getting the walls right, properly preparing the woodwork, and simply getting a full and even coverage of paint are simple matters, but vital. There is no room for half-done preparation, something our teams know well.<\/p>\n<p>When the time does come for you to redecorate, we hope to have the chance to discuss how we could help.<\/p>\n<p>With best wishes<\/p>\n<p>Marlon Bulger Production Director Bulger Wicks<br \/>\nTel: 020 8994 4455<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We (hopefully) spend about a third of our lives in bed, so getting the bedroom right is important.
