Colouring inside the lines is no more. Paint is sloppy and spilled and distressed and clumpy and looks like you did it yourself, which is great news, as I am the world’s most impatient painter. I generally end up with it all over the floor, myself, the furniture, the cups and cutlery, the taps, my toothbrush, my car door handle, my front door handle, the towels, my pillow, everywhere. So I’m welcoming the disorganised application method with open, paint-covered arms.

It’s also particularly suitable for our new apartment, which some of you may remember, we tore asunder when we moved in…On taking the carpets up, we realised the floorboards were destroyed with paint and stain, but it looked kind of brilliant, so we left them as they are… See some of the images > here <
