MADE
MADE.COM Green Checked Velvet Jude Accent Chair
MADE.COM Wood Large Layla Ceiling Light
“Squishy enough to curl up in with a book, smart enough to also make the perfect cocktail chair.”
“The way the brown glass smokes the colour of the light from under each bulb is really sophisticated.”
MADE.COM Rust Kinney Wool Tufted Rug
“Rust is such a key colour trend - it’s warm and welcoming - and I adore the quality of the pile of this rug.”
CATH KIDSTON
Cath Kidston Pink/Cream Ceramic Folded Ceiling Pendant
“The scallop edge continues to be a huge trend, softening even the most square rooms and hardest corners. This is so pretty!”
“The shape of the sofa arms is
so modern with its plumped up curves, but it borrows from the best thing about traditional shapes too - those rounded, comfortable seat cushions.”
Mallow by Cath Kidston
“Maximalism is gently coming back into style, with the addition of patterned wall lights brightening up dark corners.
This is a perfect example of why.”
Cath Kidston Heart Locket Wall Light
Rockett St George
“Truly putting the fun into functional, this circus-top-shaped basket is chic enough to go in the most grown up bedroom or bathroom.”
Rockett St George Black/White Circus Style Striped Laundry Basket
“The best vases are as beautiful empty as filled, and the graphic lines and strong edges make a very striking silhouette.”
Rockett St George Black/White Statement Stripe Vase
“I’m seeing a rise in oversized pendants, particularly because their big shades make the light that comes from them very pretty and hazy and flattering. I just adore this.”
Rockett St George Blush Pleated Fabric Ceiling Light
laura ashley
“The quality of these chairs is really impressive, as is the unexpected bobbin detail on the legs that gives the design a little extra excitement.”
Laura Ashley Set of 2 Cornish Stripe Natural Nordan
Dining Chairs
“A coastal play on the scallop trend, this time seeing the base instead
of the shade take on some pretty, pleated edges.”
Laura Ashley White Shell Table Lamp
“There was an increase in interest in heritage prints over the winter, and I believe it’s here to stay - its familiarity is comforting and makes
a house feel like a home.”
Laura Ashley Clipsham
Accent Chair
Nina Campbell
“The front of this
bedside cabinet looks like individually hand-applied reeding, which is so impressive to be able to get at this affordable price level.”
Nina Campbell Leander Sideboard
“I love the slight irregularity in the shape of this pretty striped jug - it speaks of the hand of the maker and gives it a sense of real character.”
Nina Campbell Pink Candy Stripe Jug Vase
“More scallops! I truly can’t get enough - these waves are so gentle and very relaxing to have on the bed.”
Nina Campbell Blue Jester Scallop Spot
Cotton Cushion
THE SET Home
“I love that these look like you found them on your travels - there is a real artistry in the way that they’re made and their elegant shape.”
The Set Brown Wooden Bowl and Servers Set
“I always need plenty of table lamps in my home as I have an aversion to turning on the big light, and this is just the sort I look for - subtly textured
and calming.”
The Set 2 Pack Ceramic Table Lamps
“It’s that perfect hint of detailing around the edges of these bowls that elevate the everyday and make breakfast feel more like a ritual.”
