Katherine Ormerod is a woman of many talents: she’s a digital taste-maker with a tool belt, a ghostwriter undaunted by a staple gun and a fashion journalist who knows her way with a pocket hole jig.
When she moved into a rental property several years ago, she began sharing her DIY pursuits alongside outfit posts to her 70,000-strong Instagram following. The rattan-insert doors she made from scratch to box off unsightly eaves, and the temporary wallpaper she painstakingly applied to an awkward corner, was her way of uplifting her surrounds.
