About my blog

Well I Guess This Is Growing Up is an award winning Interiors, Colour & Culture blog based in Manchester and written by Karen Clough.

Karen is a trained journalist turned marketing manager who loves to write about home, interiors and travel. After buying her first home in 2011, this site was launched covering the complete renovation of the abandoned 1930s semi-detached, often turning to DIY.

Skip forward to 2018, Karen and her family are now in their new Victorian home on another decorating adventure. They love nothing more than finding new ways to create a bold, bright family home on a budget, seeking inspiration from travel, local creatives, street art and architecture, always searching for the perfect graphic print or colour clash.

About me

Hello, I'm Karen and I'm the founder of 'Well I Guess This Is Growing Up'. Trained as a magazine journalist, I worked in the contract interiors industry before moving on to specialise in website optimisation.

Now a successful marketing manager, this site is a creative release where I can indulge in my love of renovating, interiors, street art, culture and travel. I have grown an engaged audience with a zest for adventure.

I am an experienced writer and editor, and am available for industry copywriting and strategic planning, in addition to sponsored opportunities on my site.
