Here are a few bits I picked up recently for next to nothing. I would advise keeping an eye on the website for sales but for even better bargains check out the Kildare Outlet Store- so many good deals to be had there and they recently expanded the shop so it's now brimming with loads of lovely stuff.
I didn't really need anymore bed sheets but this shade of blue is one of my all time favourites and I can't leave a polka dot behind:
I did however need a new oven glove (nothing more tragically domestic than that statement) and this colourful number is one of those ones that covers your entire arm, you know, just in case you have plans to battle dragons or whatever:
Lastly, and possibly the best of all, are these here salt and pepper shakers. I'm sorry, but these are just ridiculously cute:
Ah would you look at them there.
Confession time- I really don't need these. I already have two sets of s & p shakers so definitely didn't require a third but they had to come home with me..they were calling to me..the way only ceramic hen and roosters can. I'm using them as ornaments on either side of a shelf with framed photos, paintings and a lamp and I like the clustered, homely feel these add. Also, it was only six euro for the two. That's right, SIX! Sure where would you be going?!
You got some really lovely bits! I'm feeling ashamed as I don't even have one salt and pepper set and there's not a bit of Cath Kidson in our flat!
ReplyDeleteThats no reason to be ashamed!! In fairness, the other s & p shakers were house warming gifts..I really didn't need these ones! :)
DeleteI love CK, have some beautiful handbags from her which are perfect for everyday!
ReplyDeleteThey do have lovely bags, I used to use one of their floral satchels for college, very handy altogether :)
DeleteI really like Cath stuff but our house is a complete mish-mash of everything imaginable from angry bird mugs to old retro coke tins to ancient globes to cross stitch to fairies to car meoribilia and I actually haven't one floral thing!! I do have a giant teatowel with a rooster on a tractor thumb-tacked to the kitchen door ;-) I admire anyone who can pick a theme for homeware and stick to it! Love the shakers! x
ReplyDeleteThat sounds really cool! I love a mish-mash of stuff, it looks more homely I think!x
DeleteOk I love and need the little salt and pepper shakers.
ReplyDeleteYou really do..nothing more necessary for a home than ceramic hen s & p shakers, I always say ;)
DeleteThose salt and pepper shakers are adorable, I have ones that are two monkeys hugging:)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds amazing!!! :)
DeleteThe Cath Kidston store was always on my way to work and I always went in and mentally bought everything in the store :) I love the bits you picked, especially the hen and rooster S&P shakers!
ReplyDeleteYou could easily spend a small fortune in there, that's why I love the outlet store! Definitely less shopping guilt! ;)
DeleteOh I just adore those salt and pepper shakers! And the Kildare Outlet store is awesome :-)
