Not often we feature products from another country, but I think that maybe the way forward. There is so much design talent out there that it seems unfair not to feature it.

Doctors in the UK and around the world will tell you that we must all eat more fruit as it is good for us, and with a fruit bowl like this from New Zealand company endemicworld.com, you will want to empty the thing as quick as possible so you can fill it up again with different colours.

Coming in at about £55 + Postage it is well worth the price due to it’s unique quality.

Doing the washing is always a chore  , drying is worse and then there is all the putting things away business. Well this pan rack from ProCook can solve the last problem quite easily. If you have pans lying around with nowhere to go just hang them on this lovely pan rack and hey presto, you have a place for your pans and focal point for your kitchen too.

If you quick enough you can get it in the half price sale for £50.00.

Michelle Mason has designed these simple but elegant candle holders, they give a real sturdy feel to the whole candle holding business (if there is such as thing). What I mean is there is no sense of the candles being delicately balanced, and the design is great too, slightly space aged (because they remind me of the eggs from the Aliens films) .

The website says you can watch the candles drip like egg yolk , you would of course need yellow candles but I get the idea now , quite clever really.

Sold as a pair: Large Egg 15cm (h,) Medium Egg 12 cm (h) – £69.75 , more info here

The white cross medicine cabinet is available from purves.co.uk for £48.00
