A pastel-obsessed mother in Britain will spend another £190,000 – or about $240,000 in US dollars – on her pink house to “eradicate all elements that are black, gray or beige”.
Sophia Ferrari-Wills, 35, lives in a pastel pink “paradise,” according to SWNS.
It’s a 1960s cottage that she bought and began transforming in late 2019.
After applying her own pastel-focused handiwork, the house now has a mermaid bathroom, forest playroom, ice cream parlor and even a tree house, which cost about £10,000, or more than $12,000, SWNS said.

Right now, almost all the rooms are pastel-themed — and the mother-of-two apparently loves it so much she’s working on turning every part of the house into pastel shades.
The beige tiled kitchen floors turn pastel pink. By the time renovations are complete, everything in the home will reportedly match the pastel color scheme, the British news agency noted.

In March 2020, she began uploading photos of her pastel home to Instagram — and in April 2021, she was able to quit her full-time job as a midwife to pursue interior decorating and online influence.

The mother told SWNS there is nothing in her home in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, that won’t be pastel by the time her work is done in December.
Sophia Ferrari-Wills, who has 437,000 followers on Instagram, said: “The ground floor will be completely changed – we’re doing everything I’ve always wanted to do. I’ve always felt inhibited by the current style of the kitchen, so we’re an extension is (built) and walls are demolished.”

She added: “We still want it to be in keeping with the cottage, but with a contemporary twist. I’ll do all the decoration myself after the build – then it will be my dream house.”
The mom said she wants her home to feel like a pastel-colored “open hug.”
A conservatory attached to the building will be transformed into an open kitchen and living space, with utility room, pantry and open kitchen and living space, according to SWNS.

She also said, “There’s talk of pink aluminum windows and a unique kitchen island style with pastel details and pretty pastel pink tiles – there are loads of details I’m planning.”
She said she’s going “for maximum pastel impact.”
After purchasing the cottage in 2019, the mother and her husband, Chis, 42, a sales manager, began their pastel-inspired project. Ferrari-Wills then began sharing the couple’s progress online during the COVID lockdown.
In April 2021 she was able to quit her full-time job as a midwife to pursue interior influence.
