Say Cheese!

by Claire on April 8, 2011

I love love love cheese, and I love colour. So combine the two, and what do you get? Yep, this coloured cheese knife set from Dot Maison. They’re made from Carbon Steel and coated with a special non-stick coating which, when sharpened, will not have any detrimental effect on the colour of long life. Set of four for £19. Happy days.

Donna Wilson Cards

by Claire on April 7, 2011

I love these Donna Wilson cards. But then I do tend to love all things Donna Wilson! These are beautifully printed on thick card and blank inside for your own personal message. Each pack contains 5 different cards – Oh deer, Use my beard to keep you cosy, Eskimo Girl, Wolfie and Olive Owl. The beard one is my favourite – It has euphemism written all over it! Ha! Perhaps too good to give away, just keep them and frame them I say! Anyway, pack of 5 for £12.50. Click click ….

R1 Deluxe DAB Radio

by Claire on April 6, 2011

As if this – the R1 Deluxe DAB Radio – wasn’t enough to grab your attention as is, I have just read on Living etc that Selfridges are doing a limited edition yellow version! Hubba!  There’s only going to be 2000 available, and I can’t find them online yet so if you want one, be ready with your plastic friend! As much as the yellow one is clearly hot hot hot, I am also loving the walnut vaneer. It reminds me of my nan, and that’s not a bad thing!You can pick the standard finishes up on John Lewis for £159.95 (with a one year guarentee!). Click click….

Green Cosco Booster Seat

by Claire on April 5, 2011

The Green Cosco Booster Seat is from the late 60′s/early 70′s and you don’t see these up for grabs very often … especially in this condition. They were originally intended as car booster seats, but they don’t meet any kind of safety standards now. But they’re cool, they’re great for the home and this beauty is available from Monsters & Munchkins for £140. Click click.

Bog thanks to Nat at Sophie 4 Sophie for letting us know about this find!

Hot Buy of the Day : Cardboard Stools

by Claire on March 31, 2011

I am loving these stools designed by Stefanie Keppler and Ingo Fremer. The colourful designs and prints are sure to brighten up and room! They can take up to 200kg and can be used as stool or side table and at just £23 a pop from Jasmine Way, click click I say! Oh and although they look like they should be, apparently they’re not suitable as storage.

Steep Up to the Plate Teabag Rest

by Claire on March 30, 2011

Steep Up to the Plate Teabag Rest

The worse thing about my white kitchen cupboards is they show ever single spill and mark, the biggest culprit of all (ignoring Little Leg’s hand prints) are teabag splashes! I’ve actually got a thing about tea bags …. pet hate is those that leave them on the edge of the sink, and don’t even get me started on discoloured teaspoons!

So when I spotted this up Steep Up to the Plate Teabag Rest from Fishs Eddy I just had to add it to the ‘must have’ list. I mean, you cant get any more obvious about what it’s for and it costs just $5.95. They do ship internationally, but I can’t tell you how much as the shipping cost depends on the total weight of the order.

Panton Limited Edition Egg CupsI featured these beauties in my egg cup round up some time ago, I didn’t go for them in the end. Couldn’t justify the price. But now, sods law, they’re on sale. Grrr! Mooch have these Panton Limited Edition Egg Cups on sale – 50% off. Bargain. Just £13.27 for the set of four. I wonder if the ‘no silly spending rule’ applies to these. Hmmm ….

Terrorist Tea Pot by Suck UK

Terrorist Tea Pot by Suck UK

I had to feature this as it made me laugh so much! My in-laws have been begging me to get a teapot, apparently I need one … humph! If I was going to be persuaded though, it would have to be this one! For the price – £15.99 is the cheapest I have found – you get the  tea pot and the balaclava tea cosy. The pot holds 1.5 litres (50 Oz) which will make you 5 or 6 big cups of steaming hot tea. I like for the novelty value!

Birds on a Wire

by Claire on March 28, 2011

Once again I am drawn towards something bird inspired. I hope I am not boring you!  Birds on a Wire is a flock of eight blackbird clips strung on a 32 inch ”clothesline” — it’s a fun and easy way to display your pics, tickets, memos, and keepsakes. So if your messy desk is ruffling your feathers, then this one is surely a must! Available from Fred & Friends.
