A pastel-obsessed mom in Britain is set to spend another £190,000 — or about $240,000 in U.S. dollars — on her pink-filled home to "eradicate all elements that are black, gray or beige."
Sophia Ferrari-Wills, 35, lives in a pastel pink "paradise," according to SWNS.
It's a 1960s cottage she bought and began transforming in late 2019.
After applying her own pastel-focused handiwork, the home now has a mermaid bathroom, forest playroom, ice cream office and even a tree house, which cost around £10,000, or more than $12,000, said SWNS.

The mom told SWNS there isn't a single thing in her house in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, that won't be pastel by the time her work is done in December.
Said Sophia Ferrari-Wills, who has 437,000 followers on Instagram, "The downstairs will be completely changed — we're doing everything I've always wanted to do. I've always felt held back by the kitchen's current style, so we're having an extension [built] and walls knocked down."

After buying the cottage in 2019, the mom and her husband, Chis, 42, a sales manager, started their pastel-inspired project. Ferrari-Wills then began sharing the couple's progress online during the COVID lockdown.
