If one of them were both silly and naughty it would be half way to my perfect man.

I'm more naughty than you could possibly believe, but my silliness does come and go (a bit like my naughtiness at times )

Are you now the official board flirt, or is anyone else trying to be better than you? :rotfl: Just wondered like....

If you want a thread to be ignored, post one heartfelt, desperate cry for help about how to furnish a conservatory, late on a weekend evening. I was successfully ignored to oblivion, and have had to consider going to Ikea for inspiration now.....

We can help!

What room does it lead off, wood or uPVC, white or not?

(fwiw I also poste a serious request for a recommendation on the mortgage board today...zilch )

Right!

Rolls up sleeves:

Its a biggie 24 sq metres I think - leads off sitting room (& hall, & dining room), out into garden. Mainly going to be used for [STRIKE]dozing[/STRIKE] relaxing in, extended living area, really. UPVC & brick, solar glass roof. South and west facing. I don't like rattan/cane - comfy, comfy all the way. Errm, we've just decided to put a couple of radiators in it. I'd love slate flooring as it would go with the stone walls in the sitting room, but howls of horror round here at how cold I'd be making it. No children at home now, so it can be grown-up in style. I kill every plant I ever touch, so no botanical-garden inspired themes!


All ideas gratefully received!

Put under floor heating beneath the slate tiles great to walk on.

Is the base insulated though ?

we spend a lot of time in our conservatory, it has solid wood floors, and is big, It is l shaped and provides two seating reasand a dining area. My mother went for paper blinds designed for consrvatories that concertina up and down: don't get them! They crease badly and flies love them and its impossible to clean off fly spotting. I woul go for fabric roman blinds. Being able to blok hot/bright sun out is great, and being able to trap heat in is useful too, if you want to use it year round.

We have normal two seater sofas and a couple of armchairs. I quite like the look of rattan, but yes, we ''loll'' in there. In fact, on of the sofas in there is a litle Victorian drop arm sofa. what is wrong with orinary furniture that fits? IMO, sofas on legs are better than divan type ones, as they let light through, keep the conservatory feeling.

Art fades quickly, opt for posters:o or bright ceramics. what else?


Colours etc, really depend on what you have already leding on to it, I would pull the sitting room colour though and dd lighter touches.


Slate will be super in the summer, you can add rugs in the winter, or year round. I'd always opt for hard natural surface myself.

Nothing yet - builders will be laying the base in the next two days - I think I've left it too late for that - and there are dark mutterings about the cost, too. How much would it be, once you've got all the kit and caboodle? Any ideas?
