    My venue has some really questionable pictures on the wall and I would like to cover them up with something but dont know what, has anybody got any ideas, we cant take them down as they are set into the wall, they are bright green and dont really fit in with my cadbury purple/silver/ivory colour scheme x

    Hmmm, this may be a challenge. The first thing that springs to mind is using wall swagging, like they do in marquees (the starlight ones look gorgeous) but this could end up being pricy. The only other thing I can think of is that if the frames are deep enough you could put some sort of insert over the top, slightly bigger than the original picture and bluetac it to the inside of the frame so that nothing is damaged. You could use big pictures of you and h2b (expensive) or do simple paintings that match your colour scheme on cardboard (cheap option). A venue will rarely be perfect though. I love mine but wish the carpet was grey to match our colours! Xx

    chucky they are set into the wall so they cant be taken down......can you hang another picture over them? or mirrors?
    you could get some nice pictures fairly cheap, them either put them around your house or give them away as gifts......or keep the reciepts and take em back.....

    How about crepe paper in your colours as a cheaper option to organza.

    I would check hun whether you can put anything on the walls?
    we were looking into something similar and we cant attach anything to the walls.
