TK MAXX homeware haul: Spring 2016





This may be one of my smallest hauls ever! But the pieces are so pretty and such good value for money that I just had to share!
I decided to revamp my space and give it a bit of a lift for spring.

I always find good stuff in Tk Maxx and this time was no different.

What is a trip to Tk maxx without coming out with a candle?

I picked up:

which smells so light yet fragrant.
 It has amber and woody notes which I love but is also fresh. I picked this up for £5.99.

As the name suggests this is a very rich and deep candle.
I love what are traditionally winter candles all year round.
I find them really soothing and this candle just smells amazing.
 It is a massive 2 wick candle for less than £6!

These have over 35 hours burning time each and the jars are just as gorgeous as the scents.



I also grabbed this stunning burnished copper terrarium/ display box. (similar)
A blogger staple I know but I bagged this in the sale area and received a further discount bringing the total down to £6.99!
These sell out so fast online but I know for a fact the stock these in several branches. Some even with a better discount than I got.

I am sooo happy with my new spring homeware buts and bobs and can't wait to go back and get some more goodies.

Collective Homeware Haul SS14


Hi Lovers,

Homeware is my weakness right now! 
Homeware haul vlogs, blogs, websites mmmhhh it's just making me very excited atm!

Accessories in particular are a firm fav of mine as I am mainly buying for my room.
 So here are a few things I have picked up in the last few months.

Phrenology bust TK Maxx £5.99. I have always been obsessed with phrenology busts and had a poster when I was younger. I have even incorporated a custom design bust for a pitch at work! When I saw this I just had to have it! This is the medium , I wanted the bigger one but I couldn't find one that didn't have blemishes so I got this one which fits perfectly on my shelf.



I was actually,  reminded of my love for them when reading The Mesmerist by Barbara Ewing. Which I picked up a few years back in Poundland 2 for 1 sale. It's a very good read too!




Tesco tea light candle holders £1 each aka my new whiskey tumblers. I actually saw these ages ago in the clearance section but didn't get them and they had gone by the time I returned a week later. Luckily after checking their Homeware section there were a few in stock and I bagged 4.




Primark red berry and jasmine tealights £1.50. I do like a scented candle and these Berry & Jasmine candles are lovely and fragrant. I also picked up some pineapple & Ginger ones for 50p! Very exciting times as they are my fav autumn/winter primark candles.



D.I.Y tip: The Ginger and pineapple ones don't have that much of a scent when burning but smell incredibly pungent when they are not burning. So if you break them up and  leave them in draws or your closet they do give a nice fragrant and long lasting scent.




Primark home throw £4. I actually bought this months ago and I am in love with this minty teal tone. It is perfect for spring when it is still a little chilly at night. Throws are an easy way to change up the style of your space without changing your whole scheme.




Ikea SNABBVINGE cushion case £4
I originally bought this to trial in our 
living room but decided to use it as an accent cushion in my room. The colour and design really work well with my spring\summer bed linens but are will equally work well all year round. I also picked up a pillow which I folded in half and inserted a old cushion pillow in the middle. I like to pile my pillows high at night and require a certain level of firmness hence using 2 different fillers. It adds a really calming and sophisticated playfulness to the overall look of my room.



Last but not least, my Matalan initial mug. That every Blogger accessory necessity! I have had a few initial mugs over the years but my fav one was broken in a very mysterious event (Twas all very lemony snickets)! I always find something good in Matalan and headed over there to see what I could find. This is smaller than I would usually go for. I prefer my mugs to be a little bigger or oversized but you can't go wrong with monochrome and at £2 it is an undeniable bargain. I do like a mug and this is a nice addition to the collection.




And that's it guys.
Have  you got the homeware bug and what are you buying?

I been drinkin..: Mug homeware haul 2014




Heya Loves, 
I am absolutely obsessed with mugs and  Tea cups at the moment and have come across some lovely stuff of late.
These are a selection of my June favourites. The Eco chiller is my mason jar back up as I have dropped it to many times and it needs a break as I don't have time to make another one yet. It is really sturdy keeps my veggie smoothies cold. It also makes me feel like a kid at the chicken shop sippin something terribly sugar fuelled and syrupy. It is a bit of a novelty.

My travel mug is really setting trends at work, everyone wants one! I am not really a fan of sharing the office mugs especially when the colds are going around :-/ so this is a great alternative and your coffee will never go cold as the rubber top and ceramic body insulate so well. Happy times.

Another favourite is the stoneware mug. I ADORE the colour, the picture doesn't do it justice and at this price you cant go wrong! They are still in stock and make a great addition to any mug collection<--- mug collection? what has become of me lol?!

My fav of the lot if my cute clear optical illusion tea cup and saucer. I found this in Wembley market for a bargainous £1.20. It was actually £4 but as the set was a little cracked I opted to buy one at a cheaper price and I luuvvv it. It makes drinking tea such a pleasure. The tea cup  infuses green tea leaves so well  as the glass has medium heat retention. I wish I had bought the glass tea pot to see the leaves unfurl completely but I will definitely be on the look out for one now.

Any coffee, loose tea and mug obsessives out there?
