Does your mum like her smellies? Is she a mistress baker? Is she a foodie that enjoys a glass or two of fizz? Whatever your mum is into and whatever your wallet/purse can stretch to, we have a few great homeware ideas for the upcoming Mothering Sunday.

Price Points: Treble bubble

Treble bubble

Wherever you look at the moment, there are bubble homeware items ‘popping’ up everywhere (did you see what I did there?!).

There’s no end to the bumpy accessory options; from bubble rugs on the floor to bubble pendant lights hanging from the ceiling… and everything else in between. Products made from felt, glass, pottery and wax… even concrete! Whatever the material, the knobbly surface is very tactile – it makes you want to reach out and handle the object.

  1. Bubble felt placemat: £9.00, Etsy
  2. Bubbled plant pots: from £9.99, H&M
  3. Bubble vegan soy candles: £20.00, NOTHS

It’s been another long gap since the last time we added any items to our online shop. We’ve been making the most of the recent good weather – exploring Mid-Wales and occasionally getting out & about buying stock.

Here’s a quartet of some of the vintage things that we’ve listed in the past few days – including an eye-catching Waechtersbach platter – simply click on each image to be taken to the individual item page.

Wild Welsh Wool rugs

Custom-made peg loom Welsh wool rug

We wanted to share a recent addition to our cottage… namely some fabulous, natural wool products.

Wild Wesh Wool floor rug

We’ve just bought a hand-made woollen rug, hearth mat and set of dining chair seat pads. They were all custom-made to size using a traditional peg loom by Sharon Smith of Wild Welsh Wool.

The wool comes from rare breed sheep that she keep on her farm. We originally saw a display of her products in a shop window in Montgomery. Sharon sells at the outdoor market in the town square (it’s held every Thursday) and at several other nearby markets.

She also takes orders and custom commissions through her Facebook page. In addition to the rugs and seat pads that we ordered, wall hangings, cushions, scarves and bags are also available.

Custom-made peg woven wool seat pad

We love the variety of tones & colours from the different types of sheep – and the texture is to die for!

They’re the perfect way to soften and warm a space in this old country cottage, especially with all the hard quarry tile and slate flag floors. We’re so happy with them!
