items that have been upcycled or personalised by hand in some way. There will be bargain finds from charity shops, standout pieces from antique shops or flea markets — which I find to be treasure troves full of very affordable pieces — for your home. A combination of imagination and effort is the true currency required in building a showstopping room, money isn’t everything. WHO WOULD BE YOUR DREAM CLIENT? I’ve never been asked this question before, it’s a tricky one! It would probably be someone really girly, who’s as nuts about all things pink as I am, and would get on board with my flamingo obsession! I’d love to work with a really powerful woman like Beyoncé, someone who’s simultaneously strong and still feminine, someone with a good sense of self, but also creative enough to be open to experimenting with new ideas and pushing boundaries. But really, anyone who loves life and wears their heart on their sleeve would be ideal. People who embrace happiness have a positivity that’s infectious, and I just love to surround myself with people with that mindset.
