Culinary wizards, listen up. Keep your outfit gleaming while looking glam with this Lady apron. It is the creation of design genius of Paul Costello, part of his Living Collection for Dunnes Stores. Yours for €12 in the homeware departments of Dunnes Stores nationwide. www.dunnesstores.ie
Argos have some really nice pieces in their catalogues for spring. I spotted this wonderful wooden pendant ceiling light from Collection Anders recently. It’s €56. www.argos.ie
Harvey Norman’s Chillax range of bean bags caught my eye this week — I love the colour selections and you can use them indoors and drag them out to the garden if the weather cooperates. It’s stain and water resistant and interestingly, it is made from flame-retardant material. At €39, they’re not too expensive either. www.harveynorman.ie
How adorable are these Elvis the Elephant bookends? Every home should have an elephant if you ask me. In feng shui, they are used to energize areas of the house, and they’re considered good luck in lots of cultures. The ole feng shui gang reckon the elephants should have their trunks facing up to represent prosperity and success, but Elvis’s trunk looks just right to me. For a set of two, €14.70 from www.dotcomgfitshop.com
Monsoon have collaborated with Denby on a dinnerware collection and just look at the results. This beautiful set of four plates is my favourite at the moment. The whole collection features soft pastel muted tones and just cop a load of that delicate patterning. This set costs €43 and is available in-store and online at monsoon.co.uk
If minimalism is your thing, you’ll love this simple square wall clock. It’s available right now at Home Lush concept store for €29. home-lust.com/
Behold this beauty. It’s Fritz Hansen 60th anniversary edition Egg chair. A salute to the silhouette of the original Egg, we’re talking aniline pure leather that will darken and age into a perfect vintage look, the longer you have it. And it’s not without it’s bling — the classic aluminium surface is plated with 23 karat gold. This limited edition design is available from Nest at www.nest.co.uk and comes with a very modern price tag of €12,615, putting it firmly on the”I wish but not a hope” side of the list. Each chair will feature a special 60th anniversary leather engraving, with numbering and is available in stores until December 31
