Crumpet and Skirt cushions

Ava cushion

Remember Crumpet and Skirt's charming 'tease maids', found at the bottom of one of their pin-up mugs? The company is taking that pin-up style out of the kitchen and into the kitchen/boudoir with their new cushions

The cushions come with a choice of four luscious designs to pick from. As well as Ava, pictured, there are cushions available featuring Kim, Maureen and Lana – all executed in the same retro style. 

With beauties like this beckoning you, who wouldn't want to stop for a sit down? However, if you need a further enticement, each cushion comes with its own duck feather pad. 

The cushions cost £37 each.

Small Circles Coffee Table

Il_430xN_147056419 
The Small Circles Coffee Table is one for our readers in the USA, as it is made in Portland and shipping it further a field seems unlikely.

Michael Arras makes these one-of-a-kind cocktail/coffee tables by joining together small pieces of high-grade birch plywood into one whole table. The one shown here is stained a cinnamon colour, but there are another 16 colours if this doesn’t suit.

The table costs $399 and can be ordered online from Michael Arras’ Etsy Store.
