Daniel Daybed from Brissi

Take it easy with this sumptuous daybed from Brissi. £3,400 I have always thought there is something so decadent about having a daybed. Neither a bed nor an armchair – they lend themselves so well to a naughty afternoon nap. Ok, so most of us don’t have the luxury of being able to take forty winks of an afternoon, but if you “work from home” and can tear yourself away from your laptop for a while, I suggest you invest in one of these. The Daniel daybed from Brissi is one of the most glamorous pieces of furniture I’ve seen in a long time. Its intricate scroll detailing is coupled with sleek upholstery, which combines to make a real statement piece that won’t date at all for as long as you have it your home. And, of course, if you’re busy doing the daily 9-5 grind then you can always save it for long, slouchy weekend relaxing. |

Make washing up more fun with these illustrated tea towels from Showpony. £11 It’s a fact that pretty much everyone who knows me knows about me: I hate doing the washing up. However, due to the absence of a dishwasher in my tiny kitchen, there I am every evening scrubbing pots and pans, daydreaming about much more exciting activities. Hardly anything can make the daily drudgery pleasing, or so I thought until I stumbled across designer Emma Henderson’s entertaining tea towels. Available in three designs, Emma’s Kitchen Commandment tea towels instruct their users to do various tasks such as Do The Dishes, Eat Your Greens and Keep It Clean. Each phrase has a relevant illustration. For example, with the Do The Dishes tea towel, the letters are made up of stacked dishes and plates. They’ll bring a touch of humour and colour to your kitchen and also look great framed and used as wall art. See this product at Showpony...

Add some humour to your lighting with these hat-shaped shades from Jake Phipps. From £185 While we take interiors very seriously here at Furnish HQ, we also like to inject a little bit of humour into our homes from time to time. Which is why we love these stylish yet quirky hat lights from designer Jake Phipps. Named Jeeves and Wooster, the top hat and bowler lights are quintessentially British. Finished in black with a gold or silver lining, these lights will look fabulous in any room; try them in a bedroom to give it a masculine twist or alternate between the two and create a row over a dining table to create a real talking point.

Create a real statement wherever you use this new twist on a bird table from Atelier Abigail Ahern. £275 Ok, so it’s not really a bird table - well not in the true sense anyway - but I couldn’t resist that little pun. I’ve admired this table for quite some time and constantly ummed and ahhed about whether to include it as a fab find. In the end, I decided to bite the bullet because I think it is fab and really rather love it. The Ostrich table from Atelier Abigail Ahern is, as the name ever so slightly gives away, shaped like the bottom half of an ostrich. Available in Red or Black, it will bring a whimsical touch to any room; try it with a lamp on for the perfect accompaniment for a sofa or as your bedside table.

Keep your cutlery sleek and stylish with this simple set from 95% Danish. £35 If you love your meat and all the cooking paraphernalia, then we’ve found a must-have product for you. The Ego steak fork and knife set from 95% Danish is sleek and super useful and will look great on your dining table, whether it’s a meal for two or something more formal. It’s possibly the most stylish steak cutlery we've ever seen (not a whiff of a naff wooden handle in sight), but it’s also rather technical as well as being attractive. Each piece is designed to be the perfect fit for your forefinger allowing you precise control, has been specially weighted and has an extra sharp blade for perfect cutting. And you thought designing cutlery was simple... |

Make sure you never miss an important meeting again with this funky alarm clock from Rockett St George. £47.50 If one of your new year’s resolutions is to stop missing the train, stop being late for work and actually get out of bed when the alarm goes off, then perhaps you need to invest in one of these. The Digital cube alarm clock from Rockett St George is both stylish and practical and will make a welcome addition to your bedroom. The wood effect casing and red LED display combine to make a cool retro design complete with a loud alarm to make sure you hear it through your deepest slumber. My top tip for alarm clocks is to have them as far away from your bed as possible. That way you’re forced to get out of bed to turn it off – well, it works in theory... |

Turn your little ones into neat freaks with these quirky toy boxes from Store. £20 Getting kids to clear up after themselves can be a right chore. But this could be a thing of the past with these cool toy boxes we’ve found courtesy of storage experts Store. On the face of it they look like normal storage boxes, but look a little closer and you’ll see that one side is covered in chalkboard. Kids will love scribbling on the side and creating their very own work of art while you can bribe, ahem, I mean convince them that the storage boxes look even better full. Just ensure you have lots of chalk on hand for them to create their masterpieces or you could always leave your own Tidy Up message to really hit home! Use them in playrooms, bedrooms or anywhere there’s kid-clutter and your house will soon be neat and tidy.

Inject some glamour into your lighting with these luxurious lamps from The French Bedroom Company. From £255. When it comes to lighting, it’s essential to use lots of different light sources.

Available as a silver table lamp or a brass table lamp with a dramatic black shade, the Hermitage lamps are perfect for adding a touch of glamour to any room. Use them on a side table in a living room, as your bedside lamp or on a console table to give your hallway a welcoming glow. |

Have fun and be practical at the same time with this table and rug combo from Duffy London. £595 Well, we didn't get a white Christmas - all the snow is disappearing. Call me Bing, but nothing would have made me happier than waking up to a blanket of snow on the 25th. It’s never happened to me, so I’ve got my eye on this quirky product. The Sled table from Duffy London combines a wooden sledge-shaped coffee table complete with a snow white designer rug. Practical and fun at the same time, the rug even has two deep grooves in it to mimic the sleigh being dragged through the “snow” rug. Made from FSC managed forests, it ticks the eco box too.

Brighten up the kitchen with these fun egg cups from Bloomsbury. £14.95 for a set of four. They say you either love it or hate it (personally, I fall into the latter category) but if you know someone who loves it then these Marmite egg cups from Bloomsbury will make the perfect last minute gift idea. Reminiscent of Warhol’s famous Campbell’s soup paintings, each egg cup has been given the pop art treatment and comes in a different colour. They’re great for brightening up the kitchen and adding a splash of colour to your daily egg and soldiers. And if you know someone who is really Marmite nutty, then Bloomsbury also has matching biscuit tins, mugs and a canvas. |

Add some colour to your home with these bright tables from David Seyfried. From £620. Bringing colour into the home isn’t solely the preserve of wallpaper or paint. Coloured furniture can make an instant splash in a neutral room. Now while there’s obviously lots of coloured furniture about, some if it is a bit, well, garish – and of course here at Furnish we love style and sophistication. Which is why we love these Spectrum tables from David Seyfried. The elegant handmade frames are available in black or white and come complete with a coloured glass top and if you don’t like either of the colours we’ve shown here, then don’t worry as they come in over 200 choices. This Red retro coffee table will make a real statement in your living room, while the Walnut Brown console table will make a welcome addition to your hallway. See this product at David Seyfried..

Keep loose change close at hand with this clever dish from Black+Blum. £22.50 Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves – or so the saying goes... So if your loose change always seems to end up all over the floor, then we think we’ve found the perfect solution and it’s not keeping your pennies in a manky old jam jar. The Miss Moneypenny dish from Black+Blum is great for keeping your change safe; why not keep it on your hallway console table so it’s close at hand when you’re dashing out the door? In fact, it’s also super handy for keeping any keys or other small items safe. And if you know someone who loves spending money more than saving it, you could always wrap it up and stick under the Christmas tree for them. |

For those who are expecting guests that always seem to “accidentally” stumble across your junk drawer or worse still room (and we all have one), then you better had think about getting your storage sorted.

The Leigh collection includes a dresser, sideboard and side cabinet (which can be used as bedside table or will also look good beside a sofa) all of which have been given the colour treatment.

Add some drama with this impressive chandelier from Tigermoth Lighting. From £1,498. Lighting on the whole is practical. We kinda need it otherwise we’d constantly walk around bumping into things – yes I know that’s stating the bleedin’ obvious. But that doesn’t mean lighting can’t be beautiful as well. There are lots of beautiful table lamps, pendants and wall lights about – a lot of them right here on Furnish - but we think we’ve fallen in love with Tigermoth Lighting. Their decadent and unusual range features beautiful pendants and chandeliers made from exquisite crystals that are guaranteed to create a show-stopping centrepiece in any room. We’re especially taken with the chain range which includes pendants and chandeliers made from long strands of black or silver chain as shown in this dramatic three-tier chandelier. Perfect for use in any room, we think it would look fab in a hallway with a high ceiling to make a truly elegant entrance to your home. See this product at Tigermoth Lighting...

Keep the home fires burning with these stylish fireside accessories from The Contemporary Home. From £5 There’s nothing like a real fire to create a warm atmosphere and at this time of year, with Christmas just around the corner, there really is nothing nicer. Fireside accessories have traditionally been over ornate and totally over the top, but we’ve found some very chic designs both of which are definitely neither. These wood and coal buckets are just the ticket – they’re both practical and super stylish and will help your hearth looks its best this Christmas. Made from sturdy metal, these buckets make a great alternative to the usual coal scuttle or wood store. And it seems The Contemporary Home have thought of just about everything when it comes to fireside accessories, as there’s even a coordinating match store available to ensure everything’s close at hand. So we suggest you turn off the TV, get out the marshmallows and toasting fork and have a night in front of the flames. See this product at The Contemporary Home...

Take a trip down memory lane with these framed bus blinds from London Bus Blinds. From £189. If, like me, you were slightly obsessed with the Routemaster bus (you remember, the iconic ones that used to whizz round London before the bendy buses that catch fire), then you’ll love these framed destination blinds from London Bus Blinds. Rather than being a print or copy of the blind, these are the genuine article taken from decommissioned buses up and down the country. Now, we’ve seen these before but we’ve never seen a collection as big as the one London Bus Blinds has, which means you can get destinations or stops that have special connotations to you or a loved one. They’re great as an alternative to your bog standard print and will make the perfect Christmas gift for someone who has an passion for vintage transport. See this product at London Bus Blinds...
