Tash's Instagram page says it all, @thecolourtribe lives ands breathes colour. She also hosts hashtags #crashbangcolour and #followfridayart and her colour obsession is no more evident than in her home. An explosion of colour at every corner and enough artwork to make Julia Green jealous, we soaked it all up before gettin' down and dirty (well clean, the house was immaculate!) with our Rumah Collection.

We spoke to Tash about her home, life and what makes her happy (colour and cushions!), here's what she had to say:
Who lives here?
"My husband Anthony and our two boys Thomas (6) & Harvey (3)."
How long have you been here?
"Two and a half years."
Why did you choose this place to call home?
"We felt a sense of nostalgia stepping into this home. We’re lucky that this home has remained in a solid condition, which is what attracted us to buy it in the first place (no need to renovate!).
For a home built in 1983 it has a few advanced features that are so attractive to us today, such as hydronic underfloor heating, ducted vacuuming, large pantry, heaps of storage space and master bedroom downstairs.
We always wanted a fireplace and when we saw this home, there was so much to fall in love with but nothing beats sitting in front of an open fire during winter... the sounds, the smell and the warmth is just gorgeous!"

What do you do for money?
"I’m a Marriage Celebrant (@tashywebb or www.natashawebb.com) and it fills me with joy and is so rewarding, I’ve even used the private courtyard to marry couples! Some couples opt out of the big ceremony and come to me to get married and head out to celebrate afterwards. The fact I use my home for meeting my clients and occasionally marry them here is a complete honour."
What do you do for love?
"Decoration via cushion obsession…"
Happiest memory here?
"Christmas’ are the BEST! I buy the tallest tree I can find and decorate it like the Griswalds. It’s like a magical wonderland and makes my heart BURST."
Saddest memory here?
"Losing our Fred… our precious Staffy in July. We brought him home the week after our honeymoon 8 years ago and he was a significant part of our lives… we called him our first born. My heart is still broken and we miss him every day."
Fave local hangout?
"Luxe Lounge in Balywn for cocktails with the girls."
Next on the lust list?
"The right couch for our family room… In an ideal world, every piece of furniture would be dated between the 60’s and 80’s but I'm not sure it’s practical enough for young children and a modern lifestyle. We've kept our solid and larger style couches and felt that adding true punches of colour is what gives this place life and joy."
"Our kitchen is one of the happiest kitchens I’ve ever seen. The yellow can’t help but make me smile and takes the edge off when preparing school lunches. This window opens up to an outdoors brekkie nook which is special."
Watching?
"Suits, This Is Us, Doctor Doctor, The Bachelor, Atypical, The Good Place, The Good Doctor… the list truly goes on… when the kids are in bed, it’s our time to chill."
Reading?
"I’d like to read Calmer, Easier, Happier Boys as I'm a screaming maniac with my kids at the moment and it’s not healthy. Reading puts me to sleep though so I don’t get very far."
Listening to?
"80’s music because it makes me dance in my 80’s home. LOVE 90’s music as every genre has some wicked bands & songs. Always love Foo Fighters, Crowded House, Radiohead, Men At Work."
With love,
xx
