Here is one of my favourite colours to immerse myself in and it would seem the world agrees with me. Blue is the worlds most favourite colour and maybe you, like me, just want to dive into this deep colour. In interiors it creates a sense of cool drama to set other elements against. I love to pair it with classic white for a timeless look on the floor and pepper electric tones of pink or mimosa yellow for a more dramatic effect. More on how to use deep blue over on my monthly @housebeautifuluk column. Do you love blue too or does it leave you cold?

Working on a Sunday but bringing more colour joy to the homes of Britain! I’ve been filming all summer long and it’s the home straight and this is number 11 of twelve houses I’ve had the privilege to transform. I’ve absolutely loved immersing myself in colour and creativity and seeing how it totally changes ordinary rooms into something rather magical. I will need a lie down in a dark room though when it’s all over!

The healing power of the elements! I took off to @beachboxbtn for a wood fired sauna on the beach and relished the cold wind and rain as it whipped down between blasts of hot and steamy sauna sessions. I’m totally knackered from work by the weekend but the cold always gives me a boost. I’ve kept my cold showers up everyday but am really looking forward to the weather getting cold for some bracing ice cold sea swims soon! #icebath #sauna #saunatime #coldwatertherapy #coldwaterswimming #seaswim #beachboxsauna

Officially loosing it! Our filming schedule has gone up a notch with a series of back to back reveals in process and the entire crew are working so hard! But my goodness it’s worth it, the colour and pattern joy that we are bringing the beige homes of Britain are well and truly transformational! We are not leaving a white ceiling left unpainted or a sofa bereft of cushions. I’m broken with tiredness at the end of every week but I’m boosted by the fact that fabulous interior design really does make a difference to how people feel about their homes and indeed their happiness. Big shout out to my incredibly talented and hard working design team @jenny.branson.interiors @jadegallagher.stylist and @barbara_ramani_interiors @pettsounds who put up with my fixation with ‘more is more’ interiors and tassel lampshades. And a huge Thankyou to everyone at @piproductionstv for making this dream a reality. We are only half way through but it’s already looking like a killer series! Coming to you on @channel5_tv in the new year #watchthisspace

It’s PODCAT DAY! And to celebrate the last in the current series @mad_about_the_house and I round up our favourite 10 tends in interiors this AW and Into 2022 and beyond! @duluxuk colour of the year was announced this week, Milan furniture fair has just happened IRL and London design well is next week so we are all a chatter about what’s hot in interior design. Listen to the pod The Great Indoors to hear our views.
We also interview Uphoslterer @vintique_upholstery because while we’ve always been fans of improving old bits of tatty furniture with fabulous fabrics it sounds like you lot do too! Apparently this craft is going through the roof as people want to bring fresh new life to old pieces and indeed retrain as a second career. I’ve had this bench over ten years, it’s a real family heirloom piece. We rescued it from the car boot sale and I had it covered in a patchwork of needlepoint pieces I’d been collecting. It’s a one off and I still love it everyday.
A huge thanks to our sponsor @geberituk for supporting the series and to @sarahcuddon of feast collective for producing the show.
Also, who’s spotted my new Pom Pom curtains! They are up!

I love yellow! There I said it, and it feels like lots of you do too! It’s literally sunshine in a paint tin and I defy you not to feel brightened by this happiest of hues 🌝 💛⭐️🌼🍋And the celebrate my love affair I’ve devoted my first Colour Confidence Column that launches in @housebeautifuluk this month to Sunshine Yellow. For me less of a wall to wall colour, more of a accent. Be that a cushion, vase, lampshade, doorway or why not the sofa, this happy hue can’t help but cheer you up. Check out my new column in House Beautiful magazine to discover how to incorporate it in your room schemes. Are you a wall to wall yellow lover or more of a pop of Primrose?

Changing up your rooms is one of the most life af

Changing up your rooms is one of the most life affirming things to do. Taking a house that is bland and characterless and switching it up into something that makes your heart sing, transforming a house into a home is what we are all about on these squares. But our nations passion for the home makeover all got to fever pitch in the 90s with a tv show called Changing Rooms. And the cult classic is back and who better to grab the staple gun than new hosts Jordan Cluroe and Russell Whitehead of @2lgstudio ? On the podcast today I get all the inside gossip from, rogue paint pots and the Hair Wall that united a nation in horror... Plus Kate and I reveal everything you ever needed to know about wallpaper - which I clearly have a bit of a thing for, and we help a listener who desperately needs help zoning a small space. Thanks to @geberituk for supporting this series and to @sarahcuddon and @katetaylorldn for producing. Our lovely show ❤️. #thegreatindoors #podcast #changingrooms #hairwall #wallpaper #kitchen #colourlover #banthebeige #countrykitchen #farmhousekitchen #farmhousestyle #interiordesign
