Small guest bedroom - getting it right!

Hi Charlotte,

I'm back again. Have changed a few ideas from my original design query, so I will start from the beginning.

Have now got 2 white leather sofa bed chairs, will put each one on either side of the wall and a black mirrored bedside table in between.

Have painted the walls a warm neutral, the wall behind chairbeds has a window, and I was thinking of papering this one wall with black and white paper, what kind of pattern should I go for, stripes? large pattern? small pattern?

Also this wall has a dado rail, so would the paper look silly broken up with the rail.

Now for lighting, will put a small lamp on bedside table, what about ceiling light, can I go for a showpiece or keep it plain, it would also be in black.

I will add red rug, red cushions and red picture.

The flooring is light pine wood.

One last question, what color of blind should I go for, remembering the window is the same side I am thinking of wallpapering black and white, should I go for red, or keep it neutral what color would you think.

I know this is a lot of questions, but I do so hope to get it right.

Thanking you
Elizabeth

Hello again Charlotte,

I just love your web page it is fantastic for people who don't really have the design skills.
