I like doors with panels and I like the doors to match the base boards and window + door trim (usually white). Zebra wood is very unique looking. I like art and rugs to get the attention in a room, not the doors. However, I came across gorgeous photo that appears to use flat veneer zebra wood. The baseboards are white. The multi-color slate really enhances this zebra color, too. I could not find the gray hue zebra wood. Do you have a photo or link?

My walls are painted Trendy Pink (Resene) and wallpaper Purple textured kinda like water bubble affects. want ideas on shelving for towels etc whether I display them or hide them away in cupboards or the like. I am a sports therapist and wish to change the look alittle with adding new things ... and what colour towels should I go for as white is nice but look aweful after a while... how would I dress my table etc to look professional... Please help me ... I have been massaging for 8 years and need a vamp up..Nichola

Hi Geonin, the first thing that I would do is go through your house and de-clutter everything then ensure that everything is spotless and in good condition (pay special attention to the things that you know buyers will look at and things that are touched/handled every day as well as things like appliances and doors - make sure that nothing screams "repair bill"). The second thing to think about is paint and flooring - if your carpet is in good condition have it cleaned otherwise think about replacing it (expensive but poor carpet is seen as a big expense to buyers - particularly if its their first property). Paint your walls a colour that is as light as you can to make your property bigger but remember to tone it in with the carpet and keep your trims neutral (white/black) that will compliment your walls and carpet. Remember lighting and soft furnishings can change the whole look of your home too. During the open house/inspection phase - touches of home will help: smells like fresh perked coffee or baking are always inviting (you can boil some water with a stick of cinnamon and orange slices - just hide the evidence before you leave the house); if your inspections are late in the afternoon, turn on table and floor lamps inside and outdoor lights that'll add warmth.

I think you should! What color are you thinking of painting them though? I personally did this in my own home and painted the whole interior of my wardrobes white and it made such a difference! completed opened up and lighted my bedroom!
