Im doing Richies room for him while he's away studying this week.
One of the walls was a turquoisey blue/green ... ive tried to put a light Blue over the top and its gone grey
Should i go out and buy another tin of light blue, or get an undercoat and a light blue?
Also can any of you think of any good accessories that he'd like?
Theres a funky fish tank downstairs, but i dont have a clue how to set it up
Help needed
Ally

White undercoat then the blue on top of it, you should always only do a little bit first and let it dry to see if its going to look ok

You need to put white undercoat first!
get pine effect laminate on the floor, get a floor to ceiling mirror in one corner, put a pole from floor to ceiling in the same corner, on a small platform
then build a small bar, buy some optics and attach them to the wall, try and get a beer pump too (these need gas to pressure then so are a little harder to get done) but you could just put in a beer fridge and fill it up!
Get "PLAYSTATION CHAIR" basically a chair that he can slouch in to play play station.
Oh and ceiling speakers and a dimmer switch for when your dancing

We've got the sensor dimmer thingy (not a switch, just a sensor that u lightly touch to turn light on/off or dim
and as much as id like my own little pole dancing set up, we dont have enough room because we have an en-suite, which has made the room smaller
the other stuff is gunna cost too much as well

optics are what pubs have, their the brackets that hold the bottles of shorts and do the measures of 25 ml and 50 ml
we have some in our kitchen and a bracket outside in the back garden for parties!
