After a year of study, countless late nights, practical tasks, colour boards, and more theory than I ever imagined existed, I am absolutely thrilled to announce that I am now officially a qualified Colour Consultant — achieving a Higher Merit in Colour Therapeutics for Interior Design (Advanced Level). It still feels surreal to say it! This was not a quick or easy course. It was a full, in-depth, year-long programme that I began at the end of last year. It covered colour psyc

Not every transformation means sanding floors or repainting every wall. Some of the most satisfying changes come from breathing new life into the pieces you already have. Whether it’s a tired pine dresser, a dated kitchen, or a little side table that’s lost its sparkle, small adjustments can completely lift a space. A little story from a project in Windlesham. A while back, we worked for a lovely lady in Windlesham who had a family dining table and matching sideboard she’d ha

Let’s be honest, paint prices can be a minefield. Some decorators quietly add 20–40% onto paint and hope no one notices. That has never sat right with us.   At Kolors Decorating, we pass 100% of our trade discount directly to you. We do not add a single penny onto paint. You pay the supplier directly, and you only ever pay the true trade price.   Recently in Camberley, a client told us her previous decorator had added nearly £200 extra onto the paint bill. She was shocked wh

There’s something magical about this time of year. Maybe it’s the fairy lights, maybe it’s the smell of cinnamon… or maybe it’s the fact that Jessica and I somehow manage to decorate people’s homes and sing Christmas songs at full volume without a single radio between us. (If you’ve ever hired us in December, I’d like to apologise for the Mariah moments, but also, you’re welcome.) As the year winds down, we’ve been busy working across Farnham, Camberley, Fleet, Windlesham, Ba

Choosing the right paint colour sounds simple… until you’re standing in front of a wall that looks nothing like the swatch you loved in the shop. Over the years, Jessica and I have helped so many clients avoid the classic colour mistakes that lead to disappointment, repaints and that horrible feeling of ‘why does this look nothing like Pinterest?’ We helped a client choose their colours in Guildford recently. She’d fallen in love with a blue she’d seen online, but once we tes

If there’s one thing people comment on when they watch Jessica and I work, it's this: “Hang on… how are you doing those edges WITHOUT masking tape?” Cutting-in is one of those skills that looks easy… until you actually try it. A steady hand, a good brush and over 30 years of experience painting homes across Surrey and Berkshire — that’s what makes the difference. We once had a job in Ascot where the client wanted the richest, darkest navy blue you can imagine. Stunning colour

People often imagine decorators as the old-school, slightly grumpy type who don’t chat, don’t smile and just crack on in silence. Well… that is definitely NOT Kolors Decorating.   If you hire us, you’re getting two decorators who will graft hard, prep beautifully and deliver top-tier workmanship, but you’re also getting two women who sing while they sand and laugh while they lacquer. We don’t tiptoe. We don’t pretend to be quiet little mice. We bring warmth, personality and a
