THE LIVING INFLUENCER
Homeware highlights and gift ideas
A NEW LIGHT
This smart pendant is part of Barker and Stonehouse’s latest lighting collection. Made from rattan and painted in a pine green colour, the open structure of the shade will cast an interesting reflection on to walls.
FANCY FLORALS
The delicate glassware and pretty block-printed table linen by Denmark-based brand Bungalow has me yearning for springtime. The collection is perfect for layering – I’ll be mixing up napkins, placemats and a tablecloth in each print. Browse the range online at thehambledon.com.
DARLING BUDS
Arket’s expertly curated homeware range is irresistible. New in are these bud vases, crafted by artisans in Portugal using local terracotta. Group them together in odd numbers, dot around shelves or run a line of them along your mantelpiece.
IN THE FRAME
I’ve just moved house and have been debating how to display my prints and photographs. Luckily, this beautiful image pinged into my inbox at just the right time. While a gallery wall is something I’ve always thought a little tricky to navigate, using the same frames and matching mounts (just in different sizes and alternate orientations) makes it a lot simpler. The White Company’s elegant, slender frames are the perfect option.
WAX LYRICAL
Liberty has collaborated with The Beeswax Wrap Company to create these eco-friendly wraps, which will bring a little charm to your lunchtime. Printed in the department store’s signature florals, each re-usable wrap is made with organic cotton, jojoba oil and all-british beeswax.
