Mid-century homewares print by MadebyAnna

Turquoise collection

This print from MadebyAnna is exactly what it claims to be: it's a collection of mid-century homewares, depicted in turquoise.

It's the work of Anna Betts, an illustration student and this is a digital print of an original collage. There's a sewing machine, scales, typewriter and other covetable goods, topped off by the retro type and – of course – the turquoise colouring. 

The print is A2 size and available for £30.

John Lewis revival mugs

Pots and mugs

We've featured the John Lewis Revival furniture range previously including its mid-century inspired sideboard. You can now get the mugs to go with the furniture too, with their Revival mug range

Like the furniture, the designs are very much influenced by the 1950s and 60s, such as with the Pots and Pans mug pictured which features sketchily drawn ceramics. The other mugs are covered in more naturally inspired designs with the elm leaf and the seed mug.

Each mug costs £5.

Teacups-china-blue_full

She's shown us her teapots and jugs before, now Skinny laMinx has used her enviable ceramics collection to produce this 'Everyone came to tea' tea towel

Like all her designs, there's a retro influence at play. Here the design is based on a selection of vintage tea cups, all with bright and bold patterns. The version shown is printed in 'China Blue' onto woven cotton but you prefer a subtler colour, you can also get this design is the also suitably titled 'Wedgwood grey'.

Kauniste 60s and 70s inspired tea towels

Kauniste

This charming tea towel design is taken from the first collection of Finnish company Kauniste

They've looked back to the 60s and 70s to gain inspiration for their designs, produced with the aim for them to be cherished and kept for the next fifty or so years. This Maatilda depicts a rural scene, while the range also includes a tea towel with a depiction of a well-packed kitchen shelf as well as a vegetable pattern that would fit in well with the Linea salad bowl featured yesterday. Each design is printed in bright colours onto a linen and cotton mix.

Each tea towel costs 17 euros.

Linea vibrant veg salad bowl

Linea bowl

This vibrant veg salad bowl is a much quirky addition to the Linea range. 

Instead of the very contemporary looking designs I often associate with that range, the brightly coloured illustrations on this stoneware salad bowl give it a retro feel. It reminds me of the neat 1970s designs of Gemuse by Graziela among other things, and hopefully similar items will be added to the range.  

Snap this design up quickly before it goes – it costs £20.
