    I did this - but didn't use specific floor paint thinking it would be o.k. Mistake!!

    Make sure you use proper floor paint. I used farrow and ball in the bathroom and it looks fab and has lasted.

    The other thing about white paint is that it may show up every bit of dust and dirt. It might be better choosing a slightly off white
    colour?

    I love the sound of the turquoise mat under the bed! Wish I had thought of that :)
