"PURPLE"

I've never really been into purple although I do recall choosing purple, pink and black for the striped jumper that Mum knitted for me when I was about 13 or 14. These jumpers were all the rage so Kerryn and I both had one. I'm not sure what colours Kerryn had, but I lived in my striped jumper for at least ONE season!
Now, however, I have actually chosen purple as part of the colour scheme in my bedroom. When we moved into this house twelve months ago the feature wall in the bedroom was purple. I wasn't real impressed but decided to go with it until I had decided on an alternative. So, I just bought some purple cushions and added them to my silver/grey doona. Then, several months later I decided that I quite liked the purple on the bed but not on the wall. So, we painted the walls in the original cream colour, added a new west-facing window, bought some purple European pillow slips and a purple throw and it's now just right!! I think I like purple now!
We also found a perfect 'tree' for the wall behind the bed. There are little 'twin' birds sitting on a branch on one side of the tree and two little 'single' birds on the other side. It is a 'family' tree and symbolises my four beautiful children! xxx
