I am loving the FlowerPower from ISIS Concepts. Just for the pure fun factor of it. At its most basic, FlowerPower is a simple power or data socket on an articulated flexible spine. They are made to compliment the Power Tower T41 hub which is a contract item but I can see a place for the Flower Powers in the home.
Not 100% sure how much these retail at but will report back asap.

I’ve just been checking out the Conran Shop for the first time in a long while, and immediately fell in love with their cushion collection. My favourite is possibly the woven tapestry-effect ones, such as the Three Kois. Covers cost £69, and are 48×48 and perfect to inject a bit of colour and quirkiness in to your interior.

Most people when they hear the name Clothkits get instantly nostalgic for the retro kids clothing kits of our youth’s but I was distinctly delighted to see that they also do Boomting bunting felt kits - yes make your own. That’s felt you make yourself by the way! The kit has all you need to make 2.5 metre long bunting with full instructions from an expert feltmaker. £24.95 each and they come in a cool gift box.

If you’re a regular reader of Nest (and/or Bambino) you’ll know we have a lot of love for Donna Wilson. Normally it’s just her knitwear we are swooning over but now we’re adding her ceramic collection to the list, especially the Meg and Mog plates (pictured). At £20 a pop, they’re definitely worth adding to your crockery collection.
They remind me of my youth and the Jan Pienkiwski Meg & Mog books I used to read. Happy days.

I am in awe of this series of Faux Food prints which were shot by London based photographer David Sykes with the ‘faux food’ created with the help of a model maker and prop sourcer.

Oh. My. Gosh. This chair is divine. I think it may be up there in my top ten chairs of all time. Yes really – It’s that beautiful. It’s simple, it looks like it has soul, and it’s iconic. It’s pure swoonage.
It’s a Reno Bonzon’s Gaivota award winning rocking chair. It’s aesthetic and ergonomic and is made from walnut stained beechwood. It costs £970 from Bodie and Fou and worth every single penny. Fact. (And if anyone would like to buy me one, leave a comment below and I shall let you have my delivery address!!)
