How to get the Molly-Mae decor look on a budget & the clever way to make your bedroom feel like ‘relaxing on a cloud’
MOLLY-MAE is widely regarded as the queen of clean girl aesthetics and minimalist luxury.
So if you’re looking to give your home a refresh, her interiors provides the perfect inspiration.
From her popular documentary Molly-Mae: Behind it All to her home decor Instagram account, the influencer has regularly given fans a sneak peek into her high-end home.
And if you found yourself admiring the 25-year-old’s taste, you can now replicate it without breaking the bank.
Paint and interiors expert Lucy Steele from Valspar Paint revealed the best ways for recreating Molly-Mae’s look in your own home.
NEUTRALS ON NEUTRALS
According to the pro, the staple look in the former Love Islander’s home is the “cleverly curated colour scheme” of white, creams, and beiges.
Lucy explained that this gives the home a “serene and luxurious” look throughout.
“The all-white bedroom is a calming space that feels like you’re relaxing in a cloud,” she said.
She referenced the padded feature wall, which Molly-Mae opted for rather than a traditional headboard, as well as the floor-to-ceiling mirrors she added as the backdrop.
The expert detailed how these features create an all-neutral room, which “will make you feel weightless and relaxed the second you step into it”.
“Using a white paint could feel like a bit of a risk, especially if, like Molly-Mae, you have young children,” cautioned Lucy.
“Using a paint that has excellent scrub-ability will mean you can scrub stains with a sponge and not remove any paint.”
ART DECO-INSPIRED FURNITURE
And while her overall colour scheme is neutral, Molly-Mae still manages to keep each room in her house looking visually interesting and full of depth.
According to Lucy, she does this by using items like curved furniture and lots of textures.
“For example, the use of a round table with curved dining room chairs makes the place feel instantly modern and contemporary,” the pro said.
She added that the soft lines still keep the home feeling “welcoming and gentle”.
The Art Deco style “emphasises clean lines and sleek forms”, which Lucy explained helps to make the home look modern and luxurious, without having to feature lots of colour or expensive materials.

PURPOSEFUL STORAGE
If there’s one thing that can instantly take away from a luxury look in the home, it’s clutter, revealed Lucy.
“By clearing away the excess, you reveal the beauty of your floors, walls, and surfaces, creating a space that feels refined and sophisticated,” she explained.
“A clutter-free home embodies the minimalistic elegance often associated with luxurious living.”
She recommended “adding some soft layered lighting throughout the home” to stop the space from looking “dull and uninteresting”.
SPA-INSPIRED BEDROOM
“Recreating a spa environment at home can be easier than you think, and the bathroom is the perfect place to do this as you pamper yourself in the bath or shower,” Lucy said.
“Using gold throughout the bathroom is a great way to reflect the elegance of a spa.”
She suggested opting for gold bath taps or gold embroidery on towels for small, subtle touches of gold.
“A good smell is such a charming quality in the home and will definitely impress guests,” she continued.
Rose, jasmine, vanilla, and lavender are all tranquil scents that Lucy recommends for your bathroom diffusers, candles, cleaning sprays, bath soaps, and gels.
“Painting your walls with light neutrals such as cream and taupe can
also provide a sense of ease and warmth, while bringing a bright and airy feel to your home,” Lucy added.
THE JAPANDI LOOK
Japandi is a modern interior design style which blends Japanese minimalism with Scandinavian functionality.
It is characterised by keeping things simple, comfortable, and natural looking.
Lucy explained that these Japandi inspired designs are all over Molly-Mae’s home.
“From the abundance of plant life, to the soft textures throughout the home, you get the instant sense of serene minimalism from
her space,” she explained.
“Using calming whites, plenty of cushions, and rounded furniture invites you to slow down and relax.”
