Lovely Things

Special offer: 3 for 2 on cushions

Marks & Spencer are currently offering 3 for 2 on most of their cushions, so take advantage to update the look of your sofa. Many on offer are a bit blah, though my pick would be the multi-stripe corduroy (I am a bit of a stripe freak).

Fired Earth rug sale & offers

Fired Earth is having a rug sale with 30% off their Tribal range. According to their website, each rug is unique and woven by 'nomadic tribes'. They don't say which nomadic tribes exactly, and they do have a typo on the page - but as their products are generally delectable, we'll forgive them this time won't we?

The rug sale starts tomorrow 27th May, and is in-store only. You can also take advantage of other Spring offers including printable discount vouchers for tiles, paint samples, kitchens and garden furniture until 30th June.

Furnishings at Matalan

What is it about cut price stores these days? First it was Primark leading the fashion charge, and now Matalan's following suit with some lovely homewares.

 

I love these tub chair and footstool sets - especially the red gingham. For only £99, they'd be great as a corner chair for the bedroom. I can just see my cute 50s style summer dresses draped over it, well, I could if the weather would get its act together!

Also check out the new co-ordinating cushion range including a cute teal with chinoiserie print for £10, and rose print and textured rhubarb-coloured cushions for £8 each.
