Gift Guide Written by Tracy Brown from White Lily Green
I'm so excited to have found so many talented Designers of homeware items exhibiting in the We Make Summer Fair. I think I enjoy seeking out original finishing touches for my house more than I enjoy looking for accessories or clothes! There's something rather gratifying about furnishing your home and making it a part of you.
Here are some of my favourites from the exhibiting Designers.
Belle & Boo:
Cushion - My Favourite Spot in Spring
Belle & Boos range of hand-finished cushions caught my eye straight away. This one is my favourite. The colour is gorgeous and I adore the print. It would look amazing in a nursery. Nursery décor is very much a personal thing, and I love the idea of having something thats not off the peg. Belle & Boo is one of my favourite Designers at the moment, so check out other ranges such as art prints, paper goods and clothing.
Charlotte Macey:
Charlotte Macey hand produces really quirky illustrated textile items and I love them all. Her work makes me think of sunny cottages. I adore the egg cosies, they are so cute! I would be hard pushed to choose one design, so the set of 4 would be perfect! I can just imagine being brought breakfast in bed with one of these cuties keeping my boiled eggs warm :)
Heart Zeena:
Kitchens shouldn't be neglected when it comes to finishing touches. I really like having lovely tea towels in my kitchen, and these are just adorable. The are hand screen printed and 100% cotton. They also have their own ribbon tags to hang them up!
Polka Dots and Bloom:
Polka Dots and Bloom make such beautiful decorative vintage items. My absolute favourites are their Reversible Vintage Linen Storage Basket/Bags. They are not only gorgeous, but a really lovely and useful storage idea. They are ideal for storing pretty much anything, and I can imagine even my unruly crafting clutter looking pretty in one of these. They would look great on a dresser or even on the floor. Just stunning. These baskets come with some history as the fabrics used date back 60 -100 years. Seems to make them even more special :)
Woozy:
Woozy create the most amazing wall stickers I have ever seen. You can transform an entire room with these stunning vinyl images. They describe their work as 'fresh and innovative' and I have to agree. Their designs are contemporary and offer an exciting alternative to conventional decoration.
My favourite is the Orchid. A bold statement.
