Last week we spotted this really cool and relatively easy DIY project from the boys at Mini Moderns.

Turn an old lampshade into something a little bit special, using raffia and a bit of patience. We really love the effect it gives and of course you can do this with any size shade.

To get this 1960’s vibe head to Mini Moderns Instagram, hit on their ‘lampshadeinspo’ story, and follow the tutorial.

home: trend [ arches ]

A key trend to keep an eye out for this year is arches. The rounded shape of an arch softens a space whether it’s from a mirror, a piece of furniture or a doorway.

Unless you happen to live in a Spanish villa or a Moroccan road you may be lacking arches in your architecture, so take inspiration from the many products available to create a calm inviting room.

Mirrors are a great place to start, and the bigger the better. You can also get the arch shape from a curved floor lamp, it’s more subtle but will still draw your eye.

Be bold and create arches on your walls with a printed wallpaper or perhaps using paint to draw out shapes. Whatever your style, you can bring some curve appeal to your home.

We are constantly finding new chairs to love and this beauty from Tikamoon is no exception.

Mix it up with an eclectic mix around a dining table for a modern designer approach.

They say;

The Ada copper chair offers just the right amount of subtlety and style without over doing it! You will love this new-take on the workshop spirit. It has beautifully hewn lines and its comfort is assured by the delicately curved lines. As comfortable in the living room as in the kitchen, it offers style and comfort at the same time.
