Follower Focus: How Did They Start on Instagam?

This week we wanted to showcase some of our followers, detailing their beginnings and showcasing their profiles as we think they deserve some love!

@HOUSE_OF_HOLCROFT

Mum and keen interior queen Victoria started her account when she was made redundant from her job in 2018. Her home account @house_of_holcroft became a fun hobby for her, having just given birth to her child. She quickly grew and was shortlisted for the fabulous magazine good influence awards!

She explains that Instagram is a huge part of her life:

“I get so much inspiration from Instagram and love being able to see what trends people are following and how people style their homes and gardens.”

Upon visiting Victoria's page, you are instantly attracted to her gorgeous neutrals theme. Anybody else may think this is a huge no-no when having children and dogs, but Victoria explains that this is no match for her skills:

“Over the last few years I’ve enjoyed playing with lots of different looks and I would say my style is very neutral with a little bit of glam thrown in. I like to keep my rooms neutral, so they can be changed easily with the addition of accessories to completely change them up. I love white tones inside my home which is particularly challenging with kids and a dog, and outside we’ve created a maintenance-free zone that maximises every inch of our garden which I’m very proud of!”

She explains that she has something exciting in the works, a new house to design, which she plans to document of course!!

“We are moving house again soon, and I’m so excited to be planning our new interior and outdoor spaces. There will definitely be some changes in terms of decor and style, and I’m looking forward to sharing our new journey with you all.”

We look forward to seeing what she has in store! 

@PERFECTPINKHOUSE 

As the name suggests, Perfectpinkhouse is OBSESSED with all things pink! At just over a year old, the account has already racked up a huge following! 

“A home designed with a true passion for pink”, Perfectpinkhouse explains that they established the account “to fulfil every girl's dream… pink interior”!! One thing's for sure, we are very envious!

Sure to their word, Perfectpinkhouse's account features beautiful home and garden DIY transformations and final result photos and videos, featuring (nearly) every pink product you can possibly buy!

@JESSYSDREAMHOUSE

Growing to 100,000 followers in under 2 years, Jessy's pink wonderland starting the same as the rest, with an obsession with buying home decor!

She tells how her account has opened so many opportunities for her: 

“[I've been] Able to work with some amazing businesses and make some strong friendships along the way and could now even consider making Instagram my full-time occupation. I feel extremely lucky to have had the opportunities I’ve been given all whilst having so much fun sharing little snippets of my home and life on the app.”

It is clear from Jessy's page that she cares deeply about her home and is passionate about interiors and sharing her tips to help others follow in her footsteps. She shares with us her words of wisdom:

“I believe in the law of attraction and live by the quote ‘if you believe, you can achieve”
