Oversized gift tags
Sometimes you just need something with a bit more oomph! These colossal tags (measuring up to one foot in length), printed with bold line drawings from quilts, will ensure that your sentiments don't go unnoticed.
Tags, $8, Linda&Harriet.
Two-legged wall tables
This space-saving side table is folded up on one end, allowing the piece to rest against a wall and stand on only two legs. It's the perfect spot to place books, a table lamp or keys when you come in the door.
Wall table, $145, Creative Danes.
Handwoven hemp baskets
Brighten up your kitchen or dining room table with handmade woven bowls that have a base of varnished wood. Made in Canada, they make great fruit baskets but are so pretty you could just display them empty.
Basket, $150, Th Pepin Shop.
Japanese-inspired wallpaper
Farrow&Ball introduces four new wallpaper designs this month inspired by traditional Japanese craftsmanship. From raging waves to flocks of birds, each design is available in five different colour combinations. Use them to give a room in your house an instant makeover.
Wallpaper, $225/roll, Farrow&Ball.
Recycled-magazine bowls
Crafted in Swaziland, by a thriving workshop of talented artisans, these decorative bowls are made out of discarded magazines. They are painted on the inside and then hand-stitched with cotton thread in a chevron pattern all around.
