Retro Jo is an Etsy jewellery shop owner and Instagrammer (she’s a host of #RetroHauls) and this is her whistle-stop tour of the ground floor of her home.
I love her use of colour blocking; something you’ll also find evident in her jewellery making. I’m also in awe of her sewing skills, her bright pink quilted seat covers are amazing – I just want to run the palms of my hand over those chair backs!
I’ve zeroed in on Jo’s stunning kitchen area in this post – we may revisit other rooms sometime in the future. The kitchen was made by by a company called Plykea (see what they did there?). They create custom doors, drawers and counter-tops for good old basic IKEA METOD carcasses to give you a one-of-a-kind space.
I really need to up my Insta-skills – I’ve still not embraced video and don’t make the most of stories and reels. I may steal Jo’s method of vari-speed, stop-motion film editing… if I can figure out how to do it… and only once our house has had a tidy!
