Meet Andrea Coulsell
Like so many creative people, I only discovered my creative side after having a baby...
I started painting abstract art seemingly out of the blue!
I do have strong childhood memories of visiting my grandmother's home and thinking how can I fix this! Maybe it was the large rubber plant that had Christmas decorations hanging on it all year round...!
I was also lucky to live in a childhood home where my mother had great style.
Think copper pendants, green kitchen tiles, round tables & beautiful, chocolate brown curtains. All styles that have returned today. I can certainly thank my mother for my creative gene today.
I worked at Toyota in Sales and Marketing for 12 years where I also met my husband!
After maternity leave and a 3 year stint living in London, I worked part-time as a Marketing Project Officer in Healthcare Simulation and later Monash University.
The skills learned like planning, organising and achieving results have been helpful in my freelance interior styling business.
I returned to study and completed a CertIV Interior Decoration Course at the Design School founded by Jenna Densten (The Block 2011) graduating in Feb 2019.
I've loved learning from Interior Stylist & Author Natalie Walton by doing her Styling Masterclass Course and in 2024 joined her Design & Grow Business Coaching Program.
I'm a mother of one daughter, a reluctant empty-nester and fortunately my golden retriever puppy, Billie is now my second child!
My obsession is modern, calm and inviting spaces, I love helping others feel AMAZING in their spaces.
I live on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria but work throughout Melbourne.
It would be my privilege to work with you on creating a space you love!
I'll take the stress, confusion and overwhelm out of decorating & styling your space.
