How do you feel when, for want of a better expression, pretender painters try to show off to you?

You must have had it happen, when someone either local to you, or in any given situation, really puts it on, and bless them and all, but, you just know that they aren’t the real deal that they think they are.. it is quite a bizarre thing to know how to respond to, I feel like I should be supportive and all that, but when it’s just not real I do not know what to say. Have you ever had that? & how did you deal with it?
It’s less to do with any wish to discourage, more just embarrassment at not being able to find real enthusiasm, but when I know there to be real ability, I will shout it from the roof tops.

Ideas for a summer feel all year round for a utility/conservatory room?

My house is open plan and there at the back there is an area which is very warm due to the sun trap i have in my garden so i can sit in a chair there and feel the warmth coming through the windows. I have glass doors also there so its a very nice room in the house. Thing is i want to paint it and refloor it and i want to do it with a summer theme so even in horrible rainy days etc the little bit of warmth can still come through the windows and brighten the room. I dont have an unlimited budget so it has to be something reasonable. what colour of paint? its cream just now and the living room is cream and chocolate on the arch seperating the rooms. The floor is an old stone floor which is terrible looking coz we lifted the laminate due to my dogs tearing it up. I would like to do something temp on the floor as i cant afford a proper floor until next spring & i would like to have something in place for this month as im starting a new job in october. Painting it myself is cheap.
I cant believe that i check back and find only 2 answers and they are from ***** wanting points for answering.
Good, yahoo must have removed the timewasters, its nice to see they do remove the edjits on occasion.

I've got to decorate my house & I dont know where to start! I've got wallpaper up now & I want to re-paper.

I’d like to be guided from the start right through to the end. I know absolutely nothing so you’re dealing with less than a novice. I know how many rolls of paper I need for each room. I will be changing paint, paper, blinds or curtains/nets, fixtures & fittings, even the carpet. Thank you

Do you do your own painting & decorating, or get a pro in to do it?

We do our own home handyperson thingy….
My husband is so clever…
I have painted 4 houses, though, inside & out.
