Valerie Sanders, who among other things posts @valerie_sanders, has uploaded a video showing how she creates a stylish pink kitchen with little effort.
She wrote: “From the kitchen perspective, you woke up and wondered what your kitchen would look like with pink tiles.”
The end result has garnered over 800,000 likes and looks truly stylish.
Because they are self-adhesive, the pink tiles are also ideal if you are renting, as you can remove them at the end of your rental period.
Luckily, you don’t have to break the bank to create this look.
Amazon is currently selling 10 sheets of pink 25 x 25cm tile vinyl that you can stick to your kitchen or bathroom wall for just £24.99.
This works out at around £2.50 per sheet, so ideal if you’re watching the pennies.
The product description reads: “The stickers are square in shape and ready to be applied to any clean, smooth surface.
“Tile stickers are easy to use: just peel and stick.
“The Peel & Stick Tiles are easy to apply and remove and can be applied to bathroom tiles, kitchen tiles, doors, drawers or any other smooth surface.
“Restyle or upgrade your space by using tiles in different patterns, styles and colors.
“Mix and match the different designs to create a unique atmosphere.
“The tile sticker can be applied to ceramic, wood, glass, porcelain or stone and is removable without damaging the application surface.”
Many people were impressed by her beautiful DIY work.
Someone wrote: “spectacular, give me 14 right now.”
