Just lately I am loving being at home. I decided that our home has been too neutral, colour-wise, for too long. A few years ago we tried to sell our house, right on the brink of the financial collapse and the subsequent lull in the property market. Needless to say, we gave up after a few months and are still here. Consequently, our home has been suffering from the dull dressing of cream and magnolia that the style gurus advise to adopt when selling.

I’ve also been spending way too much time on Pinterest, where colour = life. Slowly, slowly, the urge to create a ‘pinteresting’ life seeped into my soul.  I drew a tarot card:

The World. I needed to ponder. Here’s my world:

I have broken through my magnolia apathy and am all fired up for a colour revolution. Our living room is turquoise with acid yellow-green accents, my kitchen is now sporting hot pink walls and the dining/sewing room is about to go deep yellowy-orange. Yum.

Here’s an in-depth look at The World.
