My customers deserve nothing less than perfection 🫡

From cold-looking and unused, to a place you'd like to spend time in! 🥰

I love that this customer was so excited about her new kitchen/study completed today that she just sent me an AI image of how she might furnish it. The first image is AI, the remainder are mine, and real.

Design advice is provided, as standard. This customer chose her wallpaper and we met to discuss colour choices to complement. We agreed on these pairings and don't they look fab!?

Occasionally, I feep deep regret! This is James and Gaspy Cat, bestowed unto the back garden whilst I worked 🤣

Out in Brum for mother's day today and can't help admiring the aesthetics that great decorating can bring! It warms my cockles.

Happy Mother's Day 🥰

A few of my projects are featured on this company's marketing and it makes me feel worthy 🥰

Imagine you've bought a sexy, expensive wallcovering. How do you protect it from water, grease, hand prints, general wear and tear?

This is a water-based protection system that I recommend atop wallpapers in bathrooms, kitchens & hallways mostly. I always decorate to last!

11 years ago, today! I was so excited.

Still am! 🥰🥰

I gave up being Special Projects Manager for an international tourist attraction company. I'd implement time-critical policies & manage 100s of people on sites around the globe. A cool job for sure but it meant no time with my 3 yo. So I knocked it on the head, trained when she was in nursery and became self-employed. As easy as that!

One of my proudest achievements and a decision I'll never regret is changing my life to be able to be the best mom to her🥰

Quirky throwback! 😋

You know when someone really sees what you do? This message from last night meant more to me than I can explain.
This is why I put so much time into quotes, plans, and the tiny details most people never see. I don’t just turn up and paint a room — I plan it, I think it through, and I care about the finish long before I pick up a brush.

To have that noticed before I’ve even started the job honestly made my day. I love what I do. I’m proud of what I do. And messages like this remind me why.

Thank you Jennifer — I can’t wait to get started 😊

1 bedroom & 1 study in a 1930s build on a road I'd love to live on. Worked on 7 homes on that road alone and they're all stunning 😋

4 days work. Hairline cracks in the "blue" room gouged out. Full prep. Window frames also. Painted using Crown Clean Extreme.

The last few photos show a few of the other rooms I decorated for this customer 7 years ago. Still looking in mint condition.

Thanks for the work again B. Maybe see you next year to renew your H/S/L.
