Go figure MINI TREND
Ever feel like somebody’s watching you? It may happen more often with this characterful trend. Figurative forms are popping up all over the latest collections, from cushion covers and bedspreads, right the way through to ceramics and wall art. The YH team loves the abstract style of Beaumonde’s Irini vase, while the Desenio print and Sass & Belle trinket dish both offer a more subtle take on this style. Get the look yourself by keeping tones natural and neutral, and let the designs do the talking…
