With a name like Farmer's Cottage, you perhaps imagine something traditional for your garden, not something like these space age spheres, which look straight out of the 1970s.
There are three different (but similar) designs, all made to order and offered in three different sizes – the smaller rotating sphere seater, the slightly bigger rotating sphere larger and the top-end deluxe summer house sphere.
If Clark Gable, Inspector Clouseau and Tom Sellek are anything to go by, nothing makes a gent's face like a well coiffed moustache. To help you recreate the classic mo's of the past, Man's Face Stuff have created a selection of fine waxes to tame your facial furniture.
The moustache waxes come in a selection of manly scents: Gin & Tonic, All Nighter (Coffee & Pipe Tobacco) and Red Hot (Cinnamon & Bay Rum). You also get a stick of unscented wax for last minute corrections on the go.
The set is $26 and is available from Man's Face Stuff store on Etsy.
In addition to their aesthetic merits, vintage-style household accessories like this Long Handle Dustpan and Brush tend to have a longevity that their modern-day counterparts lack.
As well as saving your back and knees with it's long handle, this dustpan and brush folds away for easy storage. It's made of metal with a man-made bristle brush which should easily outlast the usual plastic sort.
A perfect pop of colour for your kitchen – either in sugar-pink or blue.
The set costs £35.00 from Oliver Bonas here.
Looking for a cheap and colourful way to brighten up your floor space? Check out this Mod sketch rug, available at Urban Outfitters.
The design is a slice of seventies style – the pattern is reminiscent of Zandra Rhodes, and her love of Native America art, while the squiggly, sketchy execution is suggestive of the work of Celia Birtwell.
That's the colourful bit covered but what about the cheap bit? The rug costs just £30.

This Fielding sofa from Made.com looks like its been influenced by Florence Knoll's classic 1954 sofa.
The Knoll sofa has inspired many high street interpretations (take a look at this Ikea number or this one from Love Your Home For Less) and no wonder when the design still looks so sleek and contemporary. This three-seater sofa has the straight lines and buttoned back that hark back to the 50s original.
The price of this one stands up pretty well to its competitors: the sofa costs £999 for leather finish, or £599 for the grey herringbone upholstery pictured.
