olive loves alfie colour

16 February, 2012 in children's design & decor

I’ve touched on it in my Bubble London highlights post already, but now Olive Loves Alfie Colour, the new paint range from London based children’s store Olive Loves Alfie is available from the Olive Loves Alfie website. The range was conceived by store owner Ashlyn Gibson in collaboration with The Nursery Paint Company. It’s all super child-friendly stuff – 100% VOC free, made from soya beans and anti-bacterial (great for day nurseries as far as I’m concerned). Best of all are the colours – not your typical children’s pastels and primaries, but really zingy, fresh and thoroughly modern colours that will be loved by children and grown-ups alike. With names like Helter Skelter, Ghost Train, Trapeze and Showgirl, what’s not to love? I picture these colours as accent colours on doors, architraves, skirting or furniture. Nothing to stop you from using it on entire walls though.

I’d love to hear which colour from the 15 strong range is your favourite. On launch day at Bubble London, a clear favourite emerged. Can you guess which?
