In the UK rental market it's perpetual magnolia.. πŸ˜‘

I’ve lived in one rented house that wasn’t entirely magnolia, and that was when I rented my nan’s house to help pay towards her nursing home costs.

Other than that: yep, fucking magnolia.

Brilliantly, not all magnolia is equal. Scratched the wall in my current house, so went out and got a tester of Dulux magnolia to patch it up. It’s a slightly lighter shade 😐

Good old nan..

And that's fucking classic.. πŸ˜‚ Tbf if it was me, I'd probably have just used the lighter shade and then lightly applied some tea or maybe even a light dusting of dirt to get it to "could easily be missed if not pointed out" lol though that wouldn't work in most of the rooms in my place now, since it's all artex wallpaper (painted magnolia, of course) so any scratches would be visible in the texture, if not in the paint πŸ˜‘πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚
