Stacey Solomon has tried her hand at all sorts of DIY at her family home, Pickle Cottage, but she took a back seat this week as the finishing touches were done on her daughters Rose and Belle's new bedroom.
Documenting the transformation on her Instagram Stories, the Loose Women star showed her loyal followers before and after videos of the pretty white and pink room, revealing the change had made her emotional.
Plush cream carpets lined the floor and a little built-in staircase led to the top of the white wooden bunkbeds. However, the back wall had patches of plaster on display before being covered with a bubblegum pink velvet cushioned headboard, which could double as a seating area for her little girls to rest when they're not sleeping. See the impressive before and after in the clip below…
"While I was away our upholsterer up the road finished the backs of the girls' beds so now they're in. And I'm in love," Stacey wrote, portraying her emotions with a crying face emoji.

I know it's taken me a long while but I am away so much atm I'm just doing little bits here and there! But so excited to be almost there in the girls' room," the TV star added.
The rest of the room features a little archway full of flowers in varying shades of pink, which previously made up a flower wall in Rose's old nursery.
Stacey sprayed them to change the colours before explaining: "I also put Rose's mobile from her old room in here too. I'm so in love with it. I need to find or make a little chair and get some stationery ideas for in here."

The hand-drawn mural of a tree features a brown trunk surrounded by a bed of pink grass – which was Rose's addition – and paint splodges representing blossom.

The house now features a large country-style kitchen, a huge games room and an outdoor pool. The garden is a particularly sentimental part of the house, as it played host to Stacey and Joe's wedding in 2022.
