A mum has wowed her Instagram followers by transforming her 'boring' rented property into dream pink palace home.
Rachael Havenhand moved into the property six years ago and "tried to be normal" for the first few years with generic colours of beige and grey.
But after spending £2,500 and many hours later, she has now decorated and painted every inch of the home in bright and bold colours.
The transformation has also seen the single mum of two build up a strong social media presence thanks to her wacky home and now boasts 45,000 Instagram followers.
Speaking to Yorkshire Live, Rachael said: "When I first moved into the house it was very neutral, it was still a lovely house but it was just not my taste, it didn't excite me and I wanted to make it feel like home.
"I started by up-cycling some furniture in neon colours, then I painted the walls pink and I've continued to add to it ever since. It's never finished, I've always got new ideas and things I want to do.
"I'm constantly changing things - I'm a creative person I just cannot sit still, I wake up in the middle of the night with new ideas. I literally get depressed if I'm not creating.
"Once I get going with a project I can't stop."
The 29-year-old, who takes a lot of her inspiration from 80s and 90s music and culture, has had disagreements with her landlord in the past given her bold interior choices.
But she now says they are supportive of her choices as long as she whitewashes the entire houses when she leaves.
The thrifty mum gets most of her furniture free from Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree and eBay, while family and friends also have given her a lot of furniture to upcycle.
But the whole decoration of her home, which she shares with two daughters Gabriella, nine, and Florence, six, is simply a part of her personality.
"I've always got coloured hair, I've had pink, purple, every colour going, at the minute it's blue," Rachael said.
"I dress quite colourful too. I find a lot of my stuff in TK Maxx I always like the things that nobody else chooses, they're probably too weird for normal people.
"I'll go in B&M or The Range for cleaning products and come out with a cushion. If I see neon colours I just can't resist, I'd say my favourite colour is either lilac or neon pink."
She added: "I know it's not to everyone's taste but me and my girls love it and that's all that matters.
"I think a lot of people are scared of colour, It wasn’t to my ex’s taste at all, he lives in a beige flat now we've split, with black furniture but I am painting a rainbow mural on the wall in the girls' bedroom at his home.
"I get the odd comment like 'oh I couldn't live here it would give me a headache' but I just find it funny. The majority of people can appreciate what I have created."
Rachael, who is also a qualified personal trainer and beautician, is determined she will one day make it as an interior designer and artist.
She also currently commissions art pieces for others inspired by her eccentric style.
Her dream is to able to own her own home where there are no limits and she can do whatever she wants to it.
"I did a commission for a woman and she said I can't believe I've got a Rachael Havenhand piece of art, it gave me shivers," she said.
"It blows my mind that I get orders from all over the world, that somebody from America has chosen to have a piece of my art that I created on their wall - there's no feeling like it.
"That's the dream, I would love to become recognised world wide for my interior design and art.
"I have plans to start a blog and a YouTube channel, everything has been put on hold at the minute with coronavirus and home schooling but I've got big plans for the future."
