Christmas gifts from Independent brands for the Home of Colour Lovers.

Christmas gifts from Independent brands(AD) I thought it would be fun to curate a collection of Christmas gifts from Independent brands for the Home, that would appeal to colour lovers. 

I do love seeking out independent brands and supporting them at this time of the year. My criteria is that they have to be pieces that I would actively seek out myself and buy.

I’m no Marie Kondo, but my aim was to find the home decor that would spark joy.

So here they are, all in my workspace, in their pastel glory.

The desk is by nubie. You can read more about it here.Christmas gifts from Independent brandsThe Smile painted wood sign with a solid oak frame was specially created for me by Modo creative. 

I chose “Smile” because it’s a reminder to be happy for all that is good in our lives.

Isn’t it gorgeous and so striking? I love its minty green blue colour.

It’s definitely one of my favourite Christmas gifts from Independent brands.Christmas gifts from Independent brandsI’ve always wanted a locker, like those you see in high school American films.

When I found out that you could get pink lockers at Rose and Grey interiors, I was over the moon.

Doesn’t that pink just fit so well with all the pastel hues in my study?

There’s a rail to hang clothes and lots of shelving for storage inside too.

The lockers come in a variety of other colours, so could suit all styles of decor.I’ve been coveting the ceramics from raawii, a Copenhagen based company for a while.

All their beautiful earthenware are made in Portugal.

I love the simplicity of the pieces, with their beautiful curvy contours, circular shapes and monochromatic hues.

The pieces reminded me of the pop art era that inspired the Memphis trend.

My pink jug and purple bowl are both from raawii’s Strøm collection.Now for a few finishing touches, a lovely Creative planner from Doodlemoo to plan out my work, sits nicely in my yellow shelf.

That super cool lips mirror on the wall is also from Doodlemoo.

I think I can sit here quite happily, browsing my new books.

On my desk currently is Rockett St. George’s latest book Extraordinary interiors in colour which is an inspirational book on colourful homes and decor, influenced by their experiences from travel, eating out and love of vintage design. This would make an amazing Christmas gift.

If you love the great outdoors and living amongst nature, with an aspiration to build your own cabin, then Cabin Porn is a great resource. I’ve been dreaming of how my cabin would look like since I read this book.So, what do you think of these potential Christmas gifts from Independent brands?

Hope they have given you some inspiration for decor too.

Have a lovely day all.
