Profimedia EXCLUSIVE: **NO NEW YORK POST, NEWS CORP OR RTL USAGES** A single mum-of-two has transformed her rented three-bedroom farm cottage into a modern multi-coloured masterpiece, using hand-painted murals and second-hand furniture. Emma Parkes, 49, from Shropshire, who works in special needs education, moved into the drab property on the outskirts of a small village 16 months ago with her daughter Poppy, 18, and her son Ralph, eight. Eager to make the place feel more like the vintage-style country home they’d dreamed of, Emma got to work stripping out the old carpets to reveal rustic floorboards, which she then painted white, with permission from the landlord. Picking a “feminine and uplifting” colour palette to replace the magnolia throughout the home Emma injected pops of colour into every room - spending a total of ÂŁ1,500 on the renovation. “When I first arrived, the cottage was all magnolia, but structurally sound,” Emma told Jam Press. “I knew I wanted to inject colour with a boho style enjoying plenty of plants throughout the house.” The first room Emma tackled was the lounge, where she spent ÂŁ800 overhauling the furniture with “retro” secondhand buys and creating a feature wallpapered wall. She said: “I first decorated the lounge with a colour palette of green, pink, soft pink and vivid pink. “The walk-in fireplace also had exposed brick which I freshened up with some white paint and I created a feature wall with wallpaper gifted by Lust home. “I removed the curtains and replaced them with a natural branch with plants hanging from it, I’ve also created this in my bedroom. “The windows are very pretty to look at plus the view is incredible, so I didn’t want to hide either of these with curtains.” Pictured: GV,General View,Image: 644407190, License: Rights-managed, Restrictions: -AUS, -NLD, -RUS, -GBR, Model Release: no, Pictured: GV,, Credit line: Jam Press/@tallulahcottage / SplashNews.com / Splash / Profimedia
