Your Local Newspaper Nories Loves Poetry Always start with a neutral pallet. Step 1. Create a focal wall – Focal walls are the number one décor solution these days and a fantastic way to give your living room a new and fresh look. Whether it is textured cladding, wallpaper or a wall mural, a focal wall is a definite must for any room. Step 2. Choose a colour scheme that will complement the room and your existing furniture pieces. GO FOR BOLD fresh colours that will make a statement and stand out. Remember the golden rule of decorating is to use two colours that complement each other but introduce a third colour on the opposite side of the colour wheel to create contrast and a visual interest in the room. Step 3. Find an old chair that you can re-upholster in daring bold colours to create a conversation piece. Long gone are the days that art only belonged on a wall and your seating arrangements to be dull. BE DARING and make your décor count. To redecorate can be a daunting experience but with a little knowhow and some expert advice you can create the room of your dreams in no time. 23 Nories from Grade 1-7, participated in the Hartiwood Eisteddfod Poetry Competition held at Pretville in Hartbeespoortdam this past week.
