Mum paints every wall of her house pink inside and outside

A mum has created her very own pink palace - by painting every room, wall and even the outside in the distinctive colour. Heather Craig began realising her vision five years ago, telling her initially unconvinced husband that she'd gone for a shade of 'light red' instead.

Now almost every space in Heather's house is pink, a decorative choice her family - including daughters Rosie, seven, and Olive, five - have had to get used to. The mother-of-two says she loved pink long before the shade became trendy with millennials, and that it has been her favourite since she was "a little kid".

“For every room, pink is my starting point and then I introduce other colours on top,” said Heather, 35, who works as an early years practitioner. “My husband wasn’t persuaded at first, but I told him it’s just a light red and he doesn’t even notice it anymore.”
