After spending so much time in the past few months thinking about how I would make every second of 2014 count, I realised the one big thing I’d been procrastinating over was painting my office. It was time the Strawberry Patch had a makeover.
Initially I thought of repainting the insipid yellow walls a warm white to make it feel more comfortable in winter (being the coldest room in the house is only good in summer!), but after consulting with my good friend and colour consultant extraordinaire Suse Henshaw, I realised a strong colour was the way to go. The Patch now has three walls of a beautiful, deep, luxurious peacock blue and one white (we thought that a better options for Skype and videos on dark days).
