We spend a lot of time looking through websites and searching for new items to share, and today we feature a little gem from made.com. This marble pendant light is super cute and perfect for a kitchen or dining room.

The simple design looks great and comes in a choice of three colours. It would also work as a cluster rather than individual pendants.

We love it!

It’s beautiful, simple, elegant and modern even though its influences are historic and set within art from past decades – this line art trend is easy to bring into a home and it’s great to seek out unique pieces that introduce this trend into a room.

Picasso inspired simple and spiralling line drawing to create figures, forms and illustrations but many artists have evoked this style.

We looked across the high street and designer stores to see what current products embrace this trend.

With every animal print you can imagine being worked into fashion design, across the high street, it was inevitable that it would also feature strongly in homeware design too.

We headed Zara Home and discovered the brand who has sell out animal pieces in their clothing collections, also has some key pieces in homeware using patterns inspired by zebras, leopards and snakes.

The bathroom, bedroom and lounge are all catered for.
