Have you ever stared at a paint colour fan for hours?
Maybe you’re playing it safe with white walls—not because you love white, but because choosing the right colour feels too overwhelming. I get it. Colour can feel like a big commitment, and with so many options out there, it’s easy to get lost.
With Emily, the Queen Of Colour, we’re diving into the world of colour to help you find your palette.
Whether you’re colour-curious or ready to go full forest green, this episode is packed with practical tips and creative inspiration to help you feel confident using colour in your home.
