Well & good
Life’s simple pleasures.
HOW WE ROLL
We’re down with anything that reduces the fiddliness of wrapping presents, so we’re very pleased to meet George & Willy’s new table-mounted paper roller. Crafted from power-coated aluminium in matte white or black, it’s ideal for wrapping gifts, flowers and stuff at home; making epic mind maps and to-do lists at the office; and as a blank canvas for the emerging artist in your life.

AVO GO
Keen to try her hand at growing an avocado tree from seed, Sheffield artist @roannawells commissioned a silversmith to make her a spun-brass propagation cone. Follow her success on Instagram and begin your own avocado empire by buying your own cones.

THAT’S THE SPIRIT
A non-drinker walks into a party… and often has no choice but to sip sugary fizzy or juice all night. It’s a familiar scenario for teetotal types, but the arrival of the world’s first distilled non-alcoholic spirits could change all that. Seedlip is sugar-, sweetener- and artificial flavour-free and available in two varieties from department, liquor and speciality food stores.

TOTAL BUZZ
What do you mean you’re still using cling film? We think it’s high time we all got excited about wax-wrapped fabric alternatives, such as these by Hawke’s Bay’s LilyBeeWrap – for our health, the environment and the aesthetics of our lunchboxes, pot lucks and picnics. In a whole host of different designs and sizes so you can easily phase that plastic right out, just wrap, wash, then reuse. lilybeewrap.com
DAILY RITUAL
The struggle is definitely real, but the tub is one place in which you can let it all drift away. Sans Ceuticals’ Bathroom Essentials kit encourages you to pamper yourself on the regular, with the goodness of Sans’ pH Perfect Body + Hand Wash and Activator 7 Body + Hair + Face Oil, plus an ethically handwoven, 100% cotton Nodi bath mat in one of three chic neutral shades. sansceuticals.com
