What is your name?
Sally Hutchinson
What is your job at Crown Paints?
Marketing Assistant for Crown
What is the best bit about your job?
Ok, so bit of a geek as pretty much enjoy all of it! Help out in most areas, from the fun stuff like press launch to ever so slightly more boring spreadsheet stuff. Taking delivery of 10,000, yes, 10,000(!!!) chocolate bars last year was also a possible highlight… Probably should also mention the team I work with seeing as they’ve all thought to say nice things, haha. They’re great, really good crack.
What is your favourite room in the house and why?
Recently moved back home to the parents so now being treated to comfy sofa’s in the living room and a kitchen full of food, something I’ve not experienced for quite a while! I’m also a fan of my bedroom right now as it’s full of all the stuff from my old house including my ‘authentic’ Egyptian rug and copper lantern which is definitely not made in China (*cough*)love these items and make the room proper cosy.
What is your favourite colour?
Orange, it’s bright, fun and a bit cheeky
If you were any Crown colour, what would it be?
Probably Summer Pudding…sun & food, 2 of my absolute favourite things
If you could pick a new name for a Crown colour, what would it be?
Beach bum
What has been your biggest DIY disaster?
Haven’t really painted lots due to renting, but my old house itself was an actual, full on DIY disaster…lilac carpet (from the first time it was cool) and a peach raggy curtain & walls in the kitchen. Peach. Enough said.
Where and what would your dream home be?
Argh too many places. Either a huge millionaire’s mansion on a beach road in Perth, a villa in Sorrento, OR, a proper old, cosy, stone house in the country. But obviously when I become a millionaire I won’t have to make such hard choices…
Most people have a dedicated outfit for decorating. What’s yours?
Shorts, old haiviana flip flops and vest top. Sexy.
What one piece of furniture could you not live without?
My bed and yep, that old Egyptian rug… J
