STACEY Solomon has proven that she’s quite the DIY queen after transforming the second kitchen at Pickle Cottage using £7 wallpaper from Dunelm.
The mum-of-four, who has gradually been revealing the room-by-room renovations of her sprawling £1.2million Essex home, took to Instagram and revealed that she’d snatched up the trendy wood panel effect wallpaper in the store’s Summer Sale.

She explained: “Finally got in here and I’m going to attempt to wallpaper this back wall.”
“I found this wallpaper on the Dunelm UK website. It was on sale for £7 which I thought was amazing and the perfect colour for in here, so hopefully I can actually pull this off.
I hardly ever wallpaper.”
The Loose Women star went on to reveal what her evening of wallpapering involved – and even offered tips to her social media followers.
Firstly, she explains how she cut the lengths, before adding an “even, generous spread of paste.”
Next, Stacey lightly folds over both ends, leaves the paste to go off for a few minutes and then announces it’s time to hang.

“Leave a little lip over the top and spirit level the sides, then slowly smooth out (I used a clean paint roller!)” she advised.
Finally, cut the edges with a blade, cut the corner edges, and fold them around.
She added: “I love it! I think I’m going to put some coving at the top because the ceiling is a bit wonky but I really like it – especially for £7.”
“I’ll finish it tomorrow and see how it all looks!”
Stacey revealed the exciting news she and fiancé Joe Swash had found their £1.2million “forever home” back in March.
Since then Stacey has kept her fans up to date with all the renovations that have taken place.
Most recently the DIY queen unveiled her gleaming new swimming pool and has also shared an incredible bathroom makeover, which she achieved using bargains from Dunelm and Amazon.
The Tap To Tidy author has also totally transformed her conservatory into a purple haven with £11.99 flower garlands hung from the ceiling.
Prior to this, she gave their Wendy House in their huge garden a lick of paint, which is located very near to their swimming pool and hot tub, and unveiled a stunning spring door display at Pickle Cottage.
