Amazing blue

I have been taking wallpaper off the living room wall. The blue paint underneath is an amazing and vivid cobalt blue, with softer blues and greens also visible. Different rooms have so far revealed very strong green, red and now blue. I would love to know when this was painted. The effect must have been brilliant - if rather overwhelming. I am planning a rather less vivid scheme, although I hope to paint the insides of some of the cupboards in homage to these colours which I have carefully recorded.

  1. Oh I love the idea of painting inside your cupboards in the original colours. Our front bedroom revealed a fabulous 'arsenic' green colour. As we sanded it away we did hope it wasn't real arsenic dye, or die! x
