Do you get that sinking feeling when you walk into someone’s home and spot your sofa, curtains or rug? I call it same-party-dress syndrome (SPDS) and although I find it an assurance of my own taste – many, who are far more individual and original than I, would find it a nightmare!
One sure-fire way to never encounter SPDS is to hunt down recycled, handmade and vintage furniture and home accessories. One brand that I’ve recently come across is Winter’s Moon; ‘our shop is a colourful mixture of handmade homewares with more than a nod to midcentury style. We love pattern and use both vintage textiles and our own new designs throughout our collection. The majority of our range is made in Great Britain by individual crafts-people, exclusively for us.’
Many items are one-offs or limited edition and so a perfect remedy for your search for something unique – but snap them up fast before they go!
