Title: Cornice or not to cornice
Post by wozzy on Jun 5^th, 2011, 5:14pm

Just had a ceiling skimmed in my room, house is 1970s built fairly modern decor, room will be all white with downlights, and laura ashley wall paprer on two walls.

Shall I put some of this in?

It will be the only room with it. Will it be ok or look a bit silly?

Opinions please.

cheers :)

Are you asking about the coving or the Laura Ashley wallpaper?

I'd put the coving up & leave the LA paper :-)
