Notebook

With the arrival of a summer heatwave, you may find your thoughts straying to the cool breezes and salt-spray of the coast.  With the arrival of the summer holidays, you may find yourself heading there in person!

If you are staying firmly land-based this summer, why not bring coastal chic into your home with some blue, beach and coastal themed items?

A quick and easy way to introduce a new theme or colour to a room is with fabric. Our Starfish, Shibori, Beach Huts and Lily cushions bring cool and vibrant blues into any setting, espeically the triangular pattern on the Lily cushiona- like sailing boats on the water, whilst the grey & white striped fabric lampshade brings a hint of the deckchair.  Pairing our turned metal lamps in Tall and Urn styles, with blue-toned accents really brings out the blue tones in the metal.

Further out to sea the large Skeleton wall clock would look at home in the captain’s cabin, where keeping a secure hold on the two-handled vintage marquetry tray would come in useful.

Finally, our round oak framed mirror could finish off the nautical theme by creating your very own porthole!

We hope you find time to enjoy the summer sunshine, wherever you are.
