If, like me, you're loving the idea of a snowed in, rustic winter wonderland, Scandinavian log cabin look this Christmas, Hipster Spinster have also produced a range of Nordic antarsia Christmas cards, alongside the cushion covers. I think an attempt at some creative Christmas display could be in order in my house.


22/11/2012

With a nod to this season's antarsia patterns, Hipster Spinster have introduced a range of said decorated cushion covers. Available at Concrete Wardrobe with or without a cushion pad. £28 with pad, £25 without. How seasonal could your sofa be?!

Fresh in this morning at Concrete Wardrobe are more beautiful ceramics by East Lothian based artist Susan Kemp. Kemp's pieces have all the necessary functionality you'd expect from modern tablewares, being both oven and dishwasher proof. But at the same time, they look so dainty, vintage and rustic you'll either want them pride of place on your dressing table cradling your precious jewels, or in the case of the tea set, reserved for careful handwashing after a mid morning pot of the finest orange pekoe. 
Prices start at £17 for the cutest jug known to womankind.

November already! How did that happen I hear you say ... well if I knew I would bottle it and sell it in Concrete Wardrobe!
