Stacey, Joe and their kids live at the stunning Pickle Cottage in Essex.

Yet the craft queen mum of five has been busy transforming their laundry room from a green-walled room to a hot pink haven.

Aside from the original wooden beams on the white ceilings and tiled walls, Stacey has opted for the cheery colour scheme on the cabinets, storage cupboards and even cherry blossom accessories.

Her daughters Belle and Rose looked elated as they sat playing on the floor with their toys.

In her caption she wrote: "Goodbye January the month that the utility room basically became the girls room.

"Took this this evening and loved it so thought I’d put it on here along with some of my favourite pictures of the utility.

"Doing this thing where I just post what makes me happy and I'm really enjoying it."

Many fans were supportive with one who posted: "Aww, gorgeous captures Stacey, love the pink!"

Another put: "Truly believe, that the laundry is an easier task when the area you have to work in brings you joy LOVE this xxx"

A third added: "This has confirmed I definitely need a pink kitchen."

Yet one flagged her other half and put: "Green would have been better for use of the room. Poor Joe's in Barbie World.

Eagle-eyed Stacey, quick to spot the comment, replied: "How often do you think Joe puts a load on!

"Plus what makes you think pink isn't he favourite colour too."

Previously, Stacey told how she was left devastated as her garden was robbed overnight.

Stacey Solomon's career so far

Stacey Solomon has been a familiar face on viewers' screens for over a decade. Let's take a look back at her career.

The X Factor (2009): Stacey competed in series six of long-running ITV singing competition The X Factor. During her time in the show, she was mentored by Danni Minogue in the 'Girls' category. The star finished in third place, behind Joe McElderry and Olly Murs.

I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here (2010); In late 2010, Stacey headed to the infamous I'm A Celeb Aussie jungle. After 21 days, she triumphed to win the tenth series. It was through I'm A Celeb that she met future husband Joe Swash - who'd won two years earlier and was hosting the ITV2 spinoff.

Celebrity Juice (2011―2013, 2016―2019): The star appeared as a panellist on 21 episodes of the comedy panel game show hosted by Keith Lemon. Stacey was a regular in the 21st series, broadcast in 2019.

Loose Women (2016 - present): Stacey has been a permanent panel member of the daytime show since 2016. She previously made guest appearances in 2011 and 2012.

Sort Your Life Out (2022 -present): This BBC show sees Stacey, with the help of an expert team, transform participants' living spaces after removing clutter.

Last year, she gave fans a tour of her epic pool house in her grounds.

She also gave a glimpse of the view from her bathroom in another snap.

SAVVY MOVE

Last month, The Sun exclusively reported how Stacey has applied to trademark Pickle Cottage so she can flog a range of her home merchandise.

The application to the Intellectual Property Official also falls under the classification for toys and books, meaning she can sell 'Pickle Cottage' branded goods for children too.

If granted it will mean Stacey, who is already a multi-millionaire, can boost her bank balance even more by using the name of her family home.
