So what exactly is in Roost episode 6?
Green kitchens have been a big trend for a while, but we walk you through decorating with green in your living room, showing you how versatile this color is, and how a few simple ideas when using it can go a long way.
Find out how to introduce green furniture to maximum effect, how to mix different green tones and we bust the blue and green colour pairing myth.
- Choosing the best green paint can be overwhelming, but our expert insight will help you get it right.
Next up, we uncover how to choose a worktop at the stunning Martin Moore Showroom in Muswell Hill so you know just what will work for your family's needs.
As choosing a kitchen worktop is a crucial part of kitchen design, you'll need to be completely honest about how you and your family will use your worktops.
Are you likely to take the time to look after it or do you want a low-maintenance option? Are you likely to put hot pans directly onto the worktop? Do you have young children that could give it a good bashing?
Once you have examined this and have found out each materials' various properties, you'll be well equipped to decide what'll work best.
- Our kitchen island ideas will definitely persuade you to add one to your space...
So, put your feet up and get ready to get inspired by Roost episode 6:
