The items NE interiors bloggers are coveting this month

I’ve just finished decorating and updating my main living space, and love both the lamp and chair featured in this image. Having spent so long inside this year I got a little bored and decided to update things. I wanted somewhere new to sit other than my sofa, and really wanted to create a quiet reading corner. I used to have an Ercol armchair here but it wasn’t too comfortable, I definitely picked it for the style over comfort! I decided to update it with an investment piece that I know I’ll have for years to come, and can happily nestle into with a book. It felt silly to have a piece of furniture I just never used. This year has taught me to make sure my space works for me.

Something I can’t wait to get my hands on is the new Townhouse Collection candle range from Jo Malone London. I’ve always had a thing for candles and for me Jo Malone London are the best, they burn perfectly. They’ve released a new scent called Glowing Embers which is ideal for the change in seasons. It’s so comforting; just like a roaring fire on its way out as the evening comes to a close. The white porcelain vessel is beautiful too, I like that it’s reusable. It would definitely find a spot on my bookshelves once it was empty.

I spied this decanter on Oliver Bonas and it’s the item that I never knew I needed. I love bringing bits of tropical decor into my home as it reminds me of places I’ve travelled and happy memories. This decanter will go perfectly in my dining room—it’s practical and pretty and will make our weekend tipple that touch more exciting.

I have been searching for a while for a stylish container large enough to hold a full bag of washing powder. I started buying powder to reduce my single use plastic and haven’t looked back—a large box lasts me six months. Since the box doesn’t look as nice in the utility room, I bought this ash bucket from Garden Trading which stores it perfectly.

I’ve also been looking for a light for my dining room. We recently decorated the room with a navy and gold wallpaper from 4murs and I’m after a ceiling light to add a frantic effect. I think dining rooms should be darker and more seductive to help create a restaurant-esque feel. Since we use our dining room every day, it’s really important to get it right. I have my eye on this smoked glass pendant from the North East based Washington Lighting Centre. I try to buy from local businesses wherever possible and they have a huge selection.

I always try and find products for the home that will last and I know I will continue to love in years to come. We love our plant display on our kitchen window sill and I think these concrete planters would fit perfectly. The price means they’re not going to blow the budget, but they still look amazing and bring a hint of texture into the space. I know that concrete is a huge trend so adding little aspects around the home is ideal.

My second pick is a vinyl patterned rug from Rockett St George. We love how it’s practical, but still so stylish.

I’ve been on the hunt for an oversized statement mirror for the living room but most are just too small to give the dramatic effect I’m after. Our house is 140 years old and part of its character lies with its flaws, so when I spotted this antiqued mirror on the Maisons du Monde website I just knew it was perfect for the space.
