Our current shower curtain is not the most attractive – it was here when we moved in and we haven’t got around to choosing a new one since. The one at present is a cheap buy which gets rather grubby at the bottom, not the nicest when you have guests over. Enter the hunt for…
Read MoreGet your baubles out
What comes to mind when it comes to dressing a Christmas tree? Those baubles out of the storage box (keeping in mind one is always broken), candy canes and the tired looking angel at the top. Yup, Christmas is predictable, but we’re not saying there’s anything wrong with a little bit of nostalgia. We just…
Read MoreFrom the Emerald City to the home
Christmas is fast approaching – we’re already popping some wish lists together – and now, amongst all the Christmas decorations, pop-up gift shops, festive markets and events, you’ll also notice Christmas creeping in to the home. December issues are full with Winter-wonderland style shoots and cosy layouts. From all this, the trend we really love…
Read MoreIf we could turn back time…
Good old Cher. Everyone loves a Cher gif no? No not her… Or her! That’s the one! And in honour of the Turn Back Time singer and due to the clocks going back this weekend, here are some perfect clocks to adorn the walls. Hope you enjoyed your extra hour in bed, David & Mark…
Read MoreCosy toes and perfect throws
So Autumn happened. All of a sudden the leaves turned that beautiful burnt orange, fell to the ground and crisped up. The temperature dropped, the coats emerged from the closet and scarves are now adorning peoples necks. On top of all that, Christmas lights have started going up in Tooting… This does mean however that…
Read MoreHabitat launches Design Reunion Collection
On Wednesday night we were invited to the Habitat Design Reunion party at the Platform exhibition level of the King’s Road store to celebrate the brand’s 50th birthday. The concept was simple yet enormously effective and the installation itself was really beautiful – a great launch to throw amongst the London Design Festival mix! For…
Read MoreFools for bar stools
After gutting David’s room, we took a little stroll down to the charity shops in Northwood with some of his less prized possessions… While there we spotted these fantastic solid bar stools for £9.99 each. Now we know the fabric on them is just a little bit rancid, but with a little love, these could…
Read MoreParqueting spaces
It’s only once something gets cleaned do you really appreciate it. After spending a Saturday afternoon giving Mark’s flat a deep clean, we couldn’t help but notice how well the floor comes up after a bit of a hoover and mop. Parquet flooring is the kind of design feature that is sometimes overlooked because you…
Read MoreOmbre you stay; dip-dye away…
After spending the weekend splishing and splashing in Tooting Bec Lido, we thought we’d take a dip into an ombre inspired trend post. For those who are not familiar with ombre, it’s basically graduated/fading colour, or dip dye if you will. Basically the same thing which most girls did with their hair last year except…
Read MoreForward Features Friday Finds!
Refreshed from a long weekend in Glasgow we thought we’d include some of our favourite things from the city (see fashion and food) amongst the mix of usual London based Friday Finds. Thanks for having us Glasgow, we had a wee belter of a weekend! Fashion: more Mr Benn then Uncle Ben, FYI… We love our…
Read MoreAre we on acid?
The Summer months are around the corner and what better way to lighten up the home then with some neon brights. Happy Jackson have a great range of whimsical slogan kitchenware – David even has the ‘Yay lunch’ lunchbox! – and Oliver Bonas have great accessories including these wire candleholders which are ideal for jazzing up…
Read MoreStriping us happy
Mark’s wardrobe is where the breton print goes to die – he is never one to turn down a nautical striped tee or jumper and his love for stripes continues in the home. Here’s our round-up of products that keep us on the straight and narrow… As you can see, stripes don’t need to be…
